Work Hard Play Hard
This is our motto! Being the final year of the children’s time at High View Primary School, as well as preparing for SATs and high school, we make sure that we recognise all the children’s “lasts”: their last first day back in September, their last class assembly, their last Christmas party etc. We also fill the year with lots of trips to excite the children and to provide first hand experiences, including Magna, The Tropical Butterfly House, our end-of-year reward trip, and, of course Robinwood (our three day adventure holiday).
Autumn Term
Our first term is starting with a bang where we dive into our topic ‘Inspirational People, Aspirational Us’. We will be delving into evolution and completing an amazing experiment where we will extract DNA! Please make sure you try to attend our Family Fun Session to get involved in the preparations! After half term, Rampaging Raiders will be our new topic where we will look at the Vikings! Also, we’ll be heading to Crucial Crew to equip the children with the necessary life skills for keeping safe as they grow older and more independent. December will bring the two most exciting times of this year – Christmas and Robinwood!
Spring Term
New year, new year’s resolutions and new topic: A Flash in Time. An early trip to Magna will launch us into our topic! We will be looking at the ever-changing technology we see around and are sure to become coding experts! A look into the Ancient Greeks will show us how they influenced our world today! At this term’s Family Fun Session, we’ll programming and creating our own games! Also during this term, SATs booster sessions will begin after school. We’ll finish the term with another family fun session at our Toga Party – Will you win in the table top Olympics?
Summer Term
After the small matter of SATs are done and dusted, we begin our final topic “Deforestation, Destruction, DEATH!” where we venture into the rainforest to learn how important and valuable it is to us all, with a trip to The Tropical Butterfly House. As the year draws to a close, celebrations are where our focus heads. They will be attending an awards ceremony to celebrate their unique personalities and skills; performing their big End of Year Six production (during which we will see who the real divas are!); and a surprise trip to reward all the hard work the children put into year six.
Goodbyes
By July, your children will be ready to continue on their own adventures, moving onto high school after their successful primary education. It will be an honour to have been part of the beginning of their lifelong journey and we will wave them on their way knowing that High View have given them the best start that we possibly could.
