Welcome to Year Six!
It doesn’t seem two minutes since the children were starting in reception and here they are embarking on their final year at primary School. Year six is a challenging year; the best way to describe it is like a roller coaster ride a lots of highs and a few lows! In year six we have the dreaded SATs and we work really hard to ensure that all the children have the best opportunity possible to achieve their full potential. However, we also try to ensure that we have fun along the way and provide the children with some lovely lasting memories.
