Hello, Year 6!

We would like to welcome you back to school! It is lovely to have everyone together again. We can finally enjoy our English Martyrs' community once more.

Below, you will find attached our work plan for the Autumn term. You will also find knowledge organisers for our Science topics: 'Electricity' and 'Evolution and Inheritance' and the knowledge organiser for this term's theme: Evolving Britain. 

If another lockdown occurs or during periods of isolation, please check this page for updates- messages and activities. 

Thank you

Learning at home- isolation and school closures

To aid anybody who is in a position where they must self-isolate, we will be providing our timetable for the week and some learning resources. These resources will enable your children to follow what we are doing in school whilst they are at home. This should help them to manage their time at home and also limit how much catching up they have to do once they can safely return to school.

Purple Mash Computing

We deliver our computing curriculum through a resource called Purple Mash. Your children can access their purple mash accounts from home, enabling them to access a variety of activities and resources to help them continue to develop their computing skills. To access Purple Mash, please use the link below.
