Celebration of the Word

Year 6 have been enjoying celebrating the Word of the Week through different pieces of scripture and thinking about how we can live these values out in our lives.

 

World Mental Health Day

For World Mental Health Day 2025, Y6 visited One Call Stadium, home of Mansfield Town Football Club where, supported by our Mansfield Town in the Community partners, we took part in mental health workshops. We looked at how exercise and nutrition can support and develop our mental health and were even treated to a special stadium tour!

 

 

Fairtrade Fortnight

We have taken part in CAFOD’s fairtrade fortnight focusing on the importance of fairtrade for our global family and what this means, Y6 collected some Fairtrade packaging to hunt our items that promote fairtrade as well as completing the CAFOD Banana Split game. Here we looked at the fair pricing for all involved in farming bananas.

The Amazon Rainforest Wow Work and Homework 

Year 6 have been learning all about the Amazon Rainforest, its biomes, habitats and features. We are also looking at climate change and deforestation, linking to our Creation and Covenant  RE topic. Here are some examples of WOW work and super homework!

 

 

We have spent time debating the points for and against deforestation and why we might need to cut some of the forest down. We discussed the detrimental effect this has on the world and concluded with our own opinions about the topic.

Community Links with Broadleaves 

For our Harvest donations, Y6 instead brought in flowers and gifts for our wonderful neighbours at Broadleaves. During our visit, Y6 made some new friends, talked about school life and the lives of our neighbours and found common ground with important members of our community. We look forward to developing our friendships as the year goes on.

Tennis at Caunton 

Some of our Y6 were given the opportunity to plan in a tennis tournament at Caunton Tennis Club. Y5 and Y6 represented school excellently.
