What will the next few weeks look like?
As you are aware we are putting on our year six play in a few weeks. Our current classwork involves rehearsals, set design, singing and dancing. The class have adapted to a more loose schedule really well. They have all been working hard and putting in 100% effort which has been very impressive. Keep up the hard work year 6!
RE
This week we continued our new unit called Faith in Action. We have been discussing what it means to belong to a community.
PSHE: Every Monday this term we will have a visitor discussing our book Unstoppable by Dan Freedman.
Unstoppable Review
Secrets and lies . . . secrets and lies . . .
Fourteen-year-old twins, Kaine and Roxy, used to be close, but now they can hardly bear to be in the same room. Roxy hates the way her brother behaves - Kaine might be brilliant at football but he's always in trouble and cares nothing about his family. And Kaine despises the way his supposedly-perfect sister, dominates their parents in her ambition to reach Wimbledon.
But the twins are both hiding dangerous secrets of their own, secrets that could destroy everything they are working towards - and both Roxy and Kaine's survival hangs precariously in the balance.
Gripping, twisting, and real, this book is UNSTOPPABLE.
Kindness
A big shout out to Oscar Op for his kindness and honesty this week. Frankie helped Jacob up off the floor in football and he also helped him during rehearsals. Amy has been kind to all her classmates as has Joshua. Amelia spilt her tray and at least five people stopped to help her.
There have been some people arguing and having disagreements this week which has been such a shame. Myself, Mrs Owen and Ms McCooey are on the look out for more acts of kindness from year six next week.
