Welcome to Year 6
What a great start to the term! We have solved lots of different place value problems, begun to appreciate the natural world through poetry, studied maps and atlases and created our own map of the Isle of Wight as well as quickly getting to grips with all of our new routines!
Please check this Blog regularly to see photos, work and information about our excellent learning as the year goes on.
