Welcome to Badgers Class
Year 6 (2025-2026)
Your teacher is: Mrs Williams
As everyone will be aware, in May, Year 6 will complete their SATS. Please be reassured that this is nothing for the children to worry about. We will do everything that we can to prepare them so that they are confident and comfortable to complete them to the best of their ability.
To support this, I will be setting a revision timetable each week, taking a "little and often" approach to covering the curriculum. This will be completed in school and children can secure this knowledge by consolidating it at home.
There are many free online games and videos for children to engage in, and I will add links to this page. If there are any questions, or if you would like to discuss anything further, please contact me via the school office.
You will need to wear PE kits on a Tuesday and Thursday this half term. There will be no regular forest school this half term.

War comes to the streets of Paris and Safiyyah's life changes for ever. Her best friend's family have fled, and the bombing makes her afraid to leave the mosque where she lives. But when her father is arrested by the Nazis for his secret Resistance work, it falls to Safiyyah to run the dangerous errands around the city. It's not long before hundreds of persecuted Jews seek sanctuary at the mosque. Can Safiyyah find the courage to enter the treacherous catacombs under Paris and lead the Jews to safety?
