Year 6 2022 - 2023

Welcome to Year 6.

'Learn to Live, Live to Learn'

Autumn Term

Welcome to Year 6 and your final year at Huntington CPS! We hope that you enjoyed a lovely summer and are ready for a busy first term.

We are very excited to have you start your Y6 journey with us and are looking forward to getting to know you all over the coming weeks. We will continue to support you all and sure that you are all happy and ready to learn.

We have lots of exciting activities planned to ensure that your final year at primary school is a memorable one. Our trip to Tatton Park is fast approaching (September 13th), please find the letter with all trip details at the bottom of this webpage. This educational visit will help bring to life our history learning about World War Two. We also have Bikeability sessions organised for later in the term - details will be communicated to pupils and parents closer to the time.

For further information relating to our curriculum for the Autumn term, please refer to the subject pages on our webpage. The content of our Year Six curriculum raises expectations and inspires our pupils to achieve the very best they can. Central to academic achievements is our ethos of "Learn to Live, Live to Learn", we aim for each child to mature emotionally and socially and feel confident but, above all, enjoy their time during their last year Huntington Community Primary School.

Don't forget to keep an eye on our School Twitter page where we upload photos of some the things we get up to in Year Six.
