Living and Learning: RSE

Posted on Wednesday 24 June 2026 by Miss Goswami

These past weeks, we’ve been learning about Relationships and Sex Education.

Here are some snippets of our learning. We covered topics such as conception, pregnancy and consent (which of course can be seen in a variety of scenarios).

       

Help at home: Check to see if your child has any more questions about this topic.

Living and Learning: Body Image

Posted on Tuesday 23 June 2026 by Miss Goswami

This week in Living and Learning, we talked about what body image is and what might influence it.

The children created a variety of definitions but in the end all agreed that ‘Body image is our idea of how our body looks and how we think it looks to others. This can include our feelings and thoughts about our height, weight, shape, skin colour, appearance or attractiveness’.

We then went on to discuss potential influences. Here are the ones we thought of:

  • Social Media
  • TV
  • Celebrities
  • Friends
  • Family
  • News
  • Ourselves
  • Fashion
  • Experience (e.g. sports clubs, school, parties)

Help at home: Discuss how each of the influences might impact our body images.

We are designers.

Posted on Tuesday 23 June 2026 by Miss Goswami

This half term we are designers. The children learnt/recapped how to tie a knot, thread a needle and create a running stitch. Year 6 were very resilient and had lots of concentration.

Help at home: Why not practise the running stitch? Discuss the difference between a running stitch and back stitch.

Road Safety Transition to High School

Posted on Thursday 18 June 2026 by Miss Goswami

Yesterday, we had a day to learn about how to stay safe when travelling to high school.

Each group discussed the positives and negatives of travelling:

Car

Train

Bike

Bus

Walk

Help at home: Take a look at the method your child will getting to high school using, are there anymore positives or negatives that you can think of?

The children then looked on Google maps to plan out a possible route to their high school from their homes. In the afternoon, they walked to Allerton Grange stopping lots of times to learn about bus timetables; T junctions and cross roads; and different types of crossings.

Help at home: What is the green cross code?

Forest School

Posted on Friday 12 June 2026 by Miss Goswami

Year 6 have started Forest School again. Whilst today was once again raining, hopefully the next few weeks will be better weather. However, please remember to send your child in with waterproof clothing and a change of shoes.

Today, the children played tug of war, made toast on an open fire and practised their fire making skills.

Residential Day 3

Posted on Saturday 06 June 2026 by Miss Goswami

What a fantastic three days we’ve had!

I can safely say that the Year 6 team has never felt so proud of all of your children. We have watched them laugh, work as a team, communicate well, enjoy being off screen-time and most importantly have fun.

Help at home: Discuss the best parts, the least favourite parts, the scariest parts and the funniest parts of the trip. Additionally, make sure your child is well rested this weekend and ready for Monday!

It’s been a blast … Robin Wood 2026, over and out!
