This term's BIG QUESTION

'WOULD YOU SWAP PLACES WITH A VICTORIAN CHILD?'

As part of our English and Creative Curriculum, we'll be investigating what it was actually like for a child living in Victorian Britain.  You think you've got it hard?  Well, just wait until you find out what the living conditions were like for a poor victorian child!  Watch this space...

Year 6 had a fabulous time at the open air museum.  Take a look at some of the photos.  

 Persuasive Leaflets for the Black Country Living Museum

Imperative verbs? Alliteration?  Passive voice?  Emotive language to tempt the reader? Relative clauses? Modal verbs? Rhetorical questions? These are some of the key features we all tried hard to include in our writing this week. Why not take a look at some of our polished pieces of writing! 

Don't forget about our JASS launch on Wednesday 2nd Nov at 9:15 after half-term.  This is your opportunity to find out more about our exciting new programme for Year6.  All parents/carers and children welcome!

Amaarah is our Star Writer this week. A fantastic re-draft of Jim Jarvis' initial impressions of the workhouse.  Can you identify any expanded noun phrases or fronted adverbials in her writing? How about examples of figurative language or words from our word lists?  Well done Amaarah! 😁

Check out our very own musical star.  A massive well done - you were great!!

"A mince pie and a carol or two..."

Well done Year 6 on a fantastic performance. Great singing, superb behaviour and what truly lovely bauble comments from all your folks!
