Year 6 Summer Term
It has been a pleasure to welcome the children back to Aylesford this week following the Christmas break. We’ve had a fantastic start to the new year and we’re already so impressed with the maturity, enthusiasm and positive attitudes that our Year 6 pupils are showing in their learning.
Meet the Team for 2025-2026
Our Year 6 staff team includes:
- Mrs Goulding - Class Teacher
- Mrs Foster - Class Teacher
- Miss Edkins - Teaching Assistant
- Mrs Bernal - 1:1 Teaching Assistant
- Mrs Razak - 1:1 Teaching Assistant
Our Summer Topic: New Horizons
Welcome back! I hope the children enjoyed a restful Easter break. It’s lovely to see them back for their final term in primary school, ready for a fun and exciting few months ahead, including the residential trip and the end-of-year production.
This term’s theme is “New Horizons,” based on Holes by Louis Sachar. We’ll use this story in English and connect it to subjects like geography, history, art, and design. The children will explore themes such as friendship, family, choices, and how the past influences our lives.
Alongside their learning, we’ll focus on building important skills to prepare them for secondary school. Through activities and discussions, we aim to help them grow in confidence and resilience.
We’re looking forward to a memorable term ahead.
