Happy Easter!

Wow – What a super busy term! Time has flown whilst Year 6 have been busy being mathematicians, authors, radio advertisers, game creators, scientists, geographers and much much more! I am so proud of how hard all of Year 6 have worked this term and how much progress they have continued to make!

We have also had our share of fun and laughter! Most recently, Crazy Hair Day saw Year 6 sporting a range of crazy do’s to raise money for Myton Hospice! On Wednesday morning the children and teachers were very sneaky as they played some naughty tricks on each other for April Fools Day. Aoife made some tasty barbeque sauced filled croissants to add to Mr Youson’s Ketchup filled doughnuts in the Staffroom, which a few teachers naively tucked into! Roisin offered some toothpaste cupcakes around the playground whilst Miss Cowley got her own back on Mr Youson when she turned him into a glitter fairy! Up in Year 6, Mrs Hartwell and Mrs Elkins had been hatching their own tricks. Children opened the toilet lids to find scary monsters staring back at them, whilst Annie delivered me my glasses I had been looking for…

I got my own back as I gave children a quiz to do which had them acting out all sorts of silly things! I rewarded the first 5 children to finish with a tasty treat – a swiss roll (a swiss roll that had been unrolled and had its jam filling exchanged for ketchup). Muahahaaaaaa….

Yesterday, we ended the term with a mix of emotions as we helped our prayer friends on an Easter Egg Treasure Hunt, cheered on the Easter Bonnet Parade, said our goodbyes to Mr Brightside by singing him our very own version of his song, congratulated all the winners of the Easter Raffle before shedding a tear as we wished each other a safe and happy Easter holiday (knowing deep down how much we’d all miss one another!).

So, Year 6, enjoy your Easter holidays, as you truly deserve it! (Although, don’t forget to do your homework – check the homework page for details to refresh your memory).

Happy Easter! 🙂
