Junior 6
Junior 6 have had a taxing start to their New Year, with mid-year assessments for both Maths and English: what an introduction to 2023! We have been really impressed with the maturity and diligence of the Junior 6 children in tackling these assessments. Aside from this, Junior 6 have studied contrasting stories and traditions this week in both RE and English. We have compared the stories of the Birth of Christ in the gospels of St Luke and St Matthew, along with researching how Christmas traditions vary across the World. The children were amazed at some of the unusual traditions and routines followed in other cultures and countries. The children understood that some of our traditions are very similar, but that others must seem strange to other cultures, too!
