Goodbye Year 6!

The month of July has been an extremely busy time for the pupils of Year 6. They have experienced lots of exciting activities before leaving for their future at secondary school. These range from a sandcastle challenge where they sculptures a large model of George Stephenson’s ‘Rocket’ from sand, a cycle ride to South Shields with the Community Police and a workshop with archaeologist, Stephen Robertson, who gave them the opportunity to handle Roman artefacts.

In recognition of their excellent attitude and commitment to the demands of Year 6 throughout the year, the children were rewarded with a visit to the ‘Dunes’ for games of bowling followed by lunch from Colman’s and games in the park.

Amidst all of this, the children managed rehearsals for their end of school assembly and two transition days at Whitburn Academy. As their proud teacher, I feel they are now fully prepared for ‘The Next Big Step’ in their lives. Good Luck year 6 and achieve great things!
