Year 6
Welcome to Term 6
'Wildlands'
This term, we are using Wildlands by Brogen Murphy to guide our learning. Set 25 years in the future, the story follows two children stranded in the Wildlands, testing their resourcefulness and determination to survive.
Our unit will focus on geography, exploring maps and navigation, and will include survival skills linked to outdoor learning.
Spring Term 2024-25
DT - Making bread
Throughout our DT this term, we have been focusing on leavened and unleavened bread. We made each type and compared their texture, taste and smell.
Bayer - Baylab Trip
This term, our trip was science based as we visited the Bayer science labs. Whilst here, we learnt all about DNA, created models of DNA and even had the opportunity to extract our own DNA to create a necklace to take home.

Lulworth Cove & Durdle Door
We enjoyed a great day visiting Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. Thankfully the sun was shining and we were able to see all the coastal formations we have been learning about in our geography lessons.

In our geography lessons, we have been exploring coastal erosion. We used cake to model coastal formations.
