Year 6 - Preparing for the next chapter....

Recently our year 6 children have been preparing for their very exciting transition to secondary school. They have worked with lots of different people to ensure that they have the smoothest and most successful transition. It is a big step but an exciting milestone that they are more than ready for. 

Last week the children took part in a road safety workshop. They were taught about being safe on their journey to school and how they could prepare for this by plotting routes and familiarising themselves with the journey to their new schools over the summer holidays. The children also promoted road safety around the grounds of Tipton Green. 

This week the children have taken part in workshops with Mr Osbourne to help them to prepare for secondary school. They asked some great questions and contributed brilliantly to the group discussions. 

Finally, we have also worked alongside staff from Q3 Academy, who are visiting once a week to give the children a taster secondary maths lessons. The children had a fabulous time and gained such a lot from these lessons. We are looking forward to continuing working with the Q3 staff over the next few weeks. It has been a lovely opportunity for the children to get to know some of their new teachers.
