The Y6 children took part in a mental health and well-being workshop, where they explored a range of activities designed to support positive mental health and emotional well-being. The session focused on the importance of connecting with others, taking part in physical activity, focussing the mind and recognising the positive qualities in others through complimenting one another. The children engaged enthusiastically with the activities and developed an understanding of how these simple strategies can help them to look after their mental health and well-being.

Year 6 have been using sentence stacking to develop their descriptive writing skills, creating expanded noun phrases to describe a range of settings. They have explored how carefully chosen adjectives and additional detail can bring a setting to life, building their sentences step by step to create vivid and engaging descriptions. This has helped them to make their writing more detailed and effective.
