Summer Term 2010

It's been a really busy summer for all the children in Year 6. We worked hard towards our end of year assessments and have done well. Our topic this term has been 'The Victorians'. We have really immersed ourselves and found out what it was like to be a poor child in Victorian times when we had a visit from the Treehouse Theatre company who did a 'Play in a Day' with  us. We also had to take part in Victorian school lessons - very different from lessons today ad our teachers were much stricter .

As part of our Victorian topic, most of the children went on our Residenatial visit to Ironbridge in Shropshire where the Industrial Revolution took place. We had a really great week! We visited Blists Hill Victorian Town, decorated tiles at Jackfield Tile Museum and made clay faces at Coalport China Works! On the way home, we visited Cadbury World and brought home lots of chocolate.

It has been a great year and we wish the children luck as they head off to their secondary schools! We will miss them!
