Our Class Saint- St Martin de Porres
During the first week of term, the children researched three different saints. They had a class debate about which saint they thought should be chosen and gave excellent reasons for their choices. The children then voted for the saint they believed should be chosen.
Our vehicle this term is
'Hear the Call- Take Action!'
This term the children will think about how their actions can positively impact on others. They will complete a variety of activities and challenges that will positively impact on the school, parish and local community.
Please check back weekly to see what Year 6 have been up to as they love to share their learning journey!
