Welcome to Year 6!
In Year 6, we have two classes: Pegasus Class and Phoenix Class.
Please click on the links below to see what we have been up to lately in Pegasus and Phoenix Class.
Social Story
Each year, we create a social story for our individual year groups. The aim of the Social Story is to help children become accustomed to their change in environment as they progress through the school. It outlines how their classroom will look, who their teachers are, and how the school day may look.

Our Learning
Visit from the Critical Care Team at Medway Hospital
A massive thank you to the incredible Critical Care Team from Medway Hospital who took time out of their busy schedules to visit our Year 6 pupils! A special mention to our ex-Miers Court pupils, for supporting the team and being great role models to our children.
The team was absolutely brilliant and delivered an invaluable life-skills workshop. Year 6 learnt exactly what to do in an emergency, including:
📞 How to contact the emergency services effectively
🛌 How to place someone safely into the recovery position
💪 How to deliver high-quality chest compressions
⚡ How to confidently use a defibrillator
The children took so much away from this hands-on experience and left feeling like real-life superheroes. We are incredibly grateful for your time, dedication and for inspiring the next generation of lifesavers! 🩺💙
Geodesic structures
Engineering magic happened in Year! Armed with just paper straws and masking tape, the children took on an incredible challenge: building geodesic domes! Watching them problem-solve and work together was great!
These future engineers showed us that with teamwork and creativity, even the simplest materials can transform into something spectacular! The domes are standing tall and proud, just like we are of their amazing effort!
Engage activity: Food tasting!
Year 6 kickstarted their Term 1 Geography topic with some food tasting. As the children will be focusing on global issues in 'How can we save our world?', they were set the challenge to see which continent each food originates from.
It was lovely to see the children so engaged and the adults were so impressed with their prior knowledge! Some children were even able to pinpoint which country it might have come from and why.
