Year 6 Class of 2024-2025
The staff and pupils in Year 6 welcome you to our page. We hope you find it useful and if you have any ideas on how it could be improved, please speak to one of the Year 6 team.
Being in Year 6 means that we need to set an outstanding example to all. Our aim is to be the best we can be by working hard every day, supporting each other, and most of all, enjoying our last year at Fleetdown. It will be a challenging and busy year, but we want to make it the best year yet!
As a member of Year 6, it also means that we are working hard to build our independence and ability to learn in many different ways. We always demonstrate the key values of Fleetdown Primary Academy.

Term 5 - Lest We Forget
This term, we will be learning all about the outbreak of the Second World War, including contents, reasons and impact across the globe. We will study the history of the war, including the beauty of art that rose from within.
Fun Fact: Around the same time that Germany fought for power in Europe, Japan wanted to control Asia and the Pacific.
Our Maths learning will include shape and geometry as well as the necessary revision of place value and number understanding using the four operations.
In our English lessons, we will be using and basing our work on the beautiful texts that are "Rose Blanche" by Roberto Innocenti, "Poems From The Second World War" by Gaby Morgan and "Tales of World War II" by Hattie Hearn.
By writing newspapers, arguments and more, we delve into the world of war and the impact that the rest of the world have experienced, even 80 years following.
