CYNEFIN / HABITATS
As we embark on an exciting new term here in Year 6, I am thrilled to share our plans for the upcoming weeks. This term, we will delve into the theme of Cynefin/Habitats, where we will explore the various environments that shape our world.
We believe that understanding our surroundings is vital for fostering a sense of belonging and connection to the community.
Throughout the term, our students will engage in a variety of stimulating activities, encouraging them to think critically about the different habitats—whether local or global—that support diverse forms of life. We will integrate our learning across subjects, culminating in a comprehensive understanding of ecological systems and the importance of biodiversity.
In addition to our thematic studies, we will immerse ourselves in literature. One of the highlights will be reading “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew” by C.S. Lewis. This timeless fantasy novel not only captivates young readers but is also eloquently inspired by the Welsh landscape, providing us with a rich tapestry of imagination and wonder. Together, we will explore its themes and the profound connections to nature it presents, igniting curiosity and creativity in our students.
Physical Education is an essential part of our curriculum, and I would like to inform you that PE lessons will take place every Tuesday. We encourage all students to come prepared in their PE kits so they can participate fully in the engaging activities we have planned.
We hope your child is as excited about this term as we are! Should you have any questions or enquiries, please do not hesitate to reach out. Here’s to a fantastic term filled with discovery, learning, and growth!
