St Anne's Catholic Primary School

These are the knowledge organisers children will refer to throughout the year to inform their writing across different genres.

With yet another great 3-0 win to England against Senegal on Sunday night, the children (and staff) are still well and truly in World Cup mode. As you may have seen on the school PSA Facebook page, Mr Gaylor promised an inflatable football Santa if he received 50 likes. Staying true to his word, on Monday, the Santa entered the playground and will remain there until the World Cup is over - look out for him on the school run!

World Cup Fever is rife in St.Anne's at the moment! Watching England win 6-2 against Iran on their first match was such a fab event to share together. Since then, more children; both girls and boys, have been playing football during lunch breaks and free time. 

We also have been decorating Christmas cards that will be sent to elderly/housebound Parishoners and to St.Luke's care home in Emmer Green.

Year 6 had a great day dressing up in spots for their last Children in Need day at St.Annes.

We also had a prison guard and a prison govenor come and visit us, telling us what prisons are like, showing us what they wear and answering questions the children had - this linked to our topic of crime & punishment last half term. 

This week, the children all voted for their One World Council leaders. They made their choice based upon who they thought was a good role model, who was a good friend, a strong leader and who would be a good spokesperson for the children of St.Annes. The two people who they thought fitted this role perfectly were Fejiro & Ottillie. Congratulations to you both! 

Literacy - This half term we are writing a setting decription based on the book 'Holes' that we have been reading this term. We started by first describing what it would be like outside the Warden's cabin, using our body senses. 

Mass - This week was our first Mass back at St. Anne's church since starting year 6. As part of one of the responsibilities of being a year 6; you take part in the ceremony. Some of the children read, some gave the offering, while others greeted the church goers and handed out the orders of service at the door. 

Year 6 Gold Tie Assembly-This week, the year 6 children received their gold ties. They all also became sports leaders, receiving a sports leader badge and our Reading leaders were announced; congratulations Rebecca, Gwen, Owee & Emielia! 

Year 6 Literacy - This half term, we've been working on writing a persuasive text on why criminals should be punished. Here is an example of our work. 

Year 6 Music - In this lesson, we worked together in groups to compose and perform music for different film scenes. We composed a love story, sadness, tense scene, a danger scene and a chase scene.
