Summer term
Last half term badger
class did a wide range of fun and brain boggling activities. As a class we have
developed dramatically and very much come together as one even more so then we
were before. This is a result of going through a lot together and overcoming
some of the hardest times of our school life we are going to face.
One of these
particularly hard times was the build up to the dreaded SATS. We may have been
dreading them but we were all confident in ourselves that we were going to be
just fine because we had each other, supportive teachers and people we could go
to if we needed advice or help. Our ELSA (Mrs Dally) was such a massive help to
a lot of the year 6 pupils. The last week or two before SATS were really the
last push all we could do was get our head down and focus we just had to except
the fact it was going to be a hard and emotional time but we were going to
power through it.
After hours of maths
lessons and plenty of focused writes the time had finally come the 11th
of May SATS had finally started. In the mornings from Monday until Thursday the
whole class was invited to attend a free morning breakfast club this ran from
8:20-8:50. This was to ensure that no one was coming into class stressed or
feeling like they simply couldn’t do it this was an increasingly big help to
all of us.
After successfully completing
our SATS we had to put them behind us, our papers had been sent away and there
was simply nothing we could do we couldn’t change them or re-do them and there
was no point in stressing over them what was done was done and there was no point in stressing.
After our last test
on Thursday we had a mini party watching movies and having some free time we
couldn’t have our party just yet because there was still ten people completing
the level 6 test in the opposite room .We didn’t worry though because we knew
we were having an awesome party to look forward to the following day.
SATS ARE over! YAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!
On the Friday badger
class had a WHOLE DAY of P.E and party food we had a range of sports like:
Rounders
Football
Tennis
We also had the
choose to do what we wanted on the field
A few weeks after
this me (Scarlett) and Lucy, Tillie, Rianne, Isabelle, Stephanie, Jamila, Jenna
and Josie all went to Petersfield to play a tournament against 11 other schools
we came 4th overall but sadly did not get into the semi-final =( We
were very disappointed but we were only in it for the fun.
The next week we did
a whole three days of art. We focused on the famous painting starry night by
Vincent Van Gough. We created lots of different styles and pictures linked to
the piece. We also did space art by Peter Thorpe. We had a lot of fun creating
all these different styles and we learned a lot.
