Good morning wonderful Year 6 children and happy Monday! We hope that you are ready for yet another week of fantastic learning!

We are coming to you this morning with our second top tip to support our focus: Every Day Counts! Did you know that children that are 10 or 11 years old need 9-11 hours sleep every night? This is how much sleep you should be getting in order to avoid being tired or lethargic. Children who get enough sleep can have a healthier immune system, better school performance and better mental health. 

Are you getting enough sleep each night? 

Check back next week for another handy top tip!

Good morning wonderful Year 6!

As we know, we have begun to focus on something really important this term: Every day counts! This is to ensure that both attendance and punctuality are at the best they can be so that you can maximise your learning time. In order to support this, each week, your Year 6 teachers will blog a tip to support either attendance or punctuality. 

This week, your top tip is: setting an alarm clock!

Having an alarm clock can not only help wake you up on time in the morning but it also helps keep your sleep schedule regular. This can normalise your sleep pattern and with this regularity, you may even find that you wake up before your alarm!

This week, during our Maths lessons, we have been focusing on converting metric measurements. Today, we put that learning to the test as we applied our knowledge to a range of problems! We worked collaboratively in groups making sure that we all understood the learning and gave support to our peers. We are now measurement masterminds!

We are sadly at the end of our fantastic trip! We have developed new friendships, challenged ourselves, faced our fears, laughed continuously and created memories that will last a life time. What a great way to start Year 6! 

We've been off to an incredibly busy start this morning with lots of us tackling the giant swing! Just a few more hours of thrilling fun before we grab lunch and head home! 

After a really hectic day, we got ourselves dressed up in our party clothes for our disco. We cannot quite believe that our PGL trip will soon be coming to an end so we are going out in style! 

The children have already had a jam-packed morning of fun! A range of activities have been completed with lots more to come after lunch. Lots of us tackled the rock climbing wall and those who didn't will be facing it this afternoon! We are loving everything that we are participating in but for now, time for some lunch! 

Year 6 had the most fantastic Saturday which was jam-packed full of exciting activities! This included: raft-building, zip wire, vertical challenge and the challenge obstacle course. Later on, the day was topped off tremendously with an evening quiz. We are all looking forward to another day of team work and challenges; the adults are particularly look forward to the disco this evening!

Hello all from PGL! 
The Year 6 children have arrived safe and sound and they are incredibly excited to start their activities! Keep your eyes peeled for more updates on the enthralling challenges that we will be experiencing this weekend!

After taking part in three incredible performances yesterday, Year 6 let their hair down and celebrated their hard work with a well-earned water fight! They came prepared with water guns and were so excited to run around, soak each other and play like children should!
