Welcome to Year 6

We are excited to welcome you and your child to Year 6! Our teaching team includes Mrs Van den Brande and Miss Bailey (Class Teachers), Mrs Austin and Mr Gorman (Additional Teaching Staff) and Mrs Wallwork, Miss Aitken and Mrs Jones (Learning Support Assistants).

We are proud to share our bookshelf for the Autumn Term, that links to the Character Traits – Kindness, Curiosity, Integrity, Bravery, Citizenship & Gratitude. Our new bookshelf contains a selection of high-quality texts to inspire our curriculum.

Our bookshelf texts are:

• The Man Who Walked Between the Towers by Mordicai Gerstein
• Holes by Louis Sacher
• Bob Marley- Little People Big Dreams by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara
• My Heart is A Poem by Various authors
• Tales From Shakespeare by Michael Murpurgo

Establishing strong relationships with our pupils and their families is our priority and we believe that communication is integral to your child’s success. Class teachers and Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) are available both before and after school to receive messages and celebrate successes.

Please look on our website for resources to help you support your child’s learning at home.

Please follow us @gbps.yearsix to find out more about your child’s learning and achievements.
