Stepping up to Y6

During transfer day the new Y6 children got to experience life in their new classrooms and spend time in their new classes.

There were lots of questions about the big issues of Y6. Knapp House, English and Maths Sets and of course SATs were all hot topics. After question time children were set the task of finishing a landscape picture by sketching (half of it had been removed and given to someone else).

After lunch each class tackled a range of team building challenges, which had been designed to test their problem solving, communication, and personal skills. All the classes managed to complete the activities successfully, but there were some groups in particular who did very well.

They will certainly need their skills when they come back to school in September as fully fledged Y6 pupils.
