Eagles
Eagles is a delightful class of hardworking children who are making the most of all the many opportunities available to them.
Mrs Andrews is the class teacher - she really enjoys teaching Years 5 and 6 and has years of experience with these age groups. We are very lucky to have Mrs Southern as our TA.
In addition to English and Maths, the children study a wide range of cross-curricular topics.
Outdoor pursuits are encouraged in Eagles class with children experiencing the delights of a 3 day residential to Portland where they take part in kayaking, raft building, coasteering and many problem solving activities resulting in lots of team building!! A 3 day residential to London where the children take in the sights of our capital city is also held. They experience a variety of enjoyable landmarks such as The Houses of Parliament. A trip to the theatre to see a West End production gives a 'Wow' factor for everyone!
We also participate in a whole range of sporting activities, including, tag rugby, athletics, cricket, hockey, high 5’s, football and the Mini Marathon.

A big well done to those children who took part in the Salisbury Schools swimming gala last week - coming home with a silver medal is a huge achievement! You are super stars Sophie, Chloe, Juno, Harley, Flynn and Harry H.

The type of homework will change slightly for Year 6 as we edge closer to their KS2 SATs in May.
Please remember to send the children to school with coats. Our weather is very unpredictable.
