Year 6 Hot Chocolate Treat

Dear Parent and Carers,
As we have come to the end of our Mayan topic, I would like to make hot chocolate with the class, using milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, a small amount of chilli powder (optional) and cocoa powder.
Could you please contact the school if you wish your child not to take part tomorrow, Wednesday 25th February.
Kind regards,
Miss McLaughlin

Year 6 Science

🧪 Year 6 Science Investigation 👀✨
Friday afternoon, Year 6 became scientists as they investigated how our pupils change size in different lighting conditions 🌤️🌑
By comparing brighter and darker environments, the children carefully observed what happened to the pupils in our eyes. They discovered that pupils get smaller in bright light and larger in darker conditions, helping us protect our eyes and see more clearly.
The class worked brilliantly, making close observations, recording results and using scientific vocabulary to explain their findings. There were lots of curious questions and thoughtful discussions along the way 🔬👏
A fantastic hands-on investigation that really brought our learning about the human body to life — well done, Year 6!

Our School’s Christian Values – Truthfulness

Our School’s Christian Values – Truthfulness

Dear Parents/Carers,

At Baschurch, our Christian values guide and inspire us each day. This half term, we are focusing on the value of Truthfulness — being honest in our words and actions, acting with integrity, and building trust in our relationships with others.

Through our worship, lessons and daily interactions, we will encourage children to reflect on truthfulness by:

– Learning from the example of Jesus, who taught the importance of truth, honesty and living with integrity.
– Exploring why telling the truth matters, even when it is difficult, and how honesty helps build trust and strong relationships.
– Encouraging children to be truthful in their choices, take responsibility for their actions, and speak with kindness and respect.

We invite you to join us in exploring this value at home by talking about the importance of honesty and trust in everyday life. This could include discussing how it feels when people are truthful, how to make things right after a mistake, and how being honest helps us grow. Please see the link for ideas on how you can explore this value together as a family.

This term’s homework

We have attached a paper copy of this term’s homework in every child’s pink reading record. It is vital that your child has this in school every day and it doesn’t go missing as it will provide a lot of information about tasks, work or information from our class. It is good practise for secondary school where they will have to be responsible for all their books too.

The pink reading records also have log in details, year group spelling word lists and details of their new spellings too. Homework will be important. I appreciate that our class have a lot going on but good routines and  habits are vital for their next school. I spoke to many of you about this issue and have tried to support in school but it is vital that some work is completed at home ready for Year 7 and beyond. I will be talking to the class as I share with the homework this term but would appreciate your support in helping our class become more independent and responsible for their home learning too.

Thank you

Remembrance Service at All Saints Church

Year 6 represented the school for the poignant Remembrance service at All Saints Church.

 

Some of our class shared poetry and prayers written by members of our class as part of the ceremony  before visiting the Commonwealth war graves to pay our respects and lay poppies.

Reverend Linda remarked on the focus of doing ones service and hope for the furutre that was included in the children’s writing.

Members of the British Legion lead the group and gave the children information about each person – marking remembrance from World War 1 and 2 but also the Boer War and the Battle of Waterloo.

We were so proud of you all and when we returned to school, members of the congregation had left messages to say how well the children did and how much it meant that they were there to continue remembering those who gave their lives but also beginning their service towards others.

Our School’s Christian Values – SERVICE

Our School’s Christian Values

Dear Parents/Carers,

At Baschurch, our Christian values guide and inspire us each day. This half term, we are focusing on the value of Service—using our time and talents to help others, putting their needs before our own, and showing love through our actions.

Through our worship, lessons, and daily interactions, we will encourage children to reflect on service by:

– Learning from the example of Jesus, who showed true leadership through serving others.
– Recognising and celebrating the ways we can serve in our home, school, church, and wider community.
– Encouraging children to help others with kindness, humility, and a willing heart.

We invite you to join us in exploring this value at home by talking about the different ways we can serve others—through small acts of kindness, helping at home, or supporting those in need. Please see the link for ideas on how you can explore this value together as a family.

Thank you for your continued support in nurturing our school’s Christian ethos.

Autumn Term 2

Hope you have all had a great half term and ready for the new term ahead! We are really looking forward to catching up with you all and your news! Just a polite reminder that next week we will be representing our school at All Saints Church for their annual Remembrance Service. Some children will be taking part in reading poems or laying wreaths.

Please could the class be dressed as evacuees once again to mark this event? Thank you

 

I have summarised below some dates for the diary for the term so far.

Good Luck and Farewell

We had a very special day marking the departure of a very special member of the class as she leaves for her new school and exciting adventures ahead. Although she will not be far, we knew it was important to mark this change for us all. A movie afternoon with some treats! Good bye and good luck!
