Welcome to Class 6

Welcome back to the start of a new academic year. It has been lovely to see all the children settling in nicely to their new classes.

We will also be exploring Celtic patterns and how Celtic warriors prepared for battle. In Science and Technology we will be looking at materials and looking at how  different types of materials are used and what they are good for.
