Year 6 Transition
As part of our transition activities in Year 6 the children will be taking part in an online workshop with Kooth next week. Kooth provides early mental health support to children and young adults across the country. The service is freely accessible to all children all they need to do is visit www.kooth.com. Sessions will be focussed on the worries and concerns children may have regarding the transition from primary to secondary school and the many changes which are associated with this stage in their school-life. Sessions will be completed as a class with year group staff and will give children an insight into some of the strategies they can use to help navigate their transition and some of the support services available to them. Further information can be found in their letter to parents here.
Summer 2 Update:
This term, as part of our Relationships and Sex Education the children will be learning about [puberty and their changing bodies, the biology of conception and the development of a baby during pregnancy. As part of these lessons children will be encouraged to use subject specific vocabulary for the parts of the body and will be given the opportunity to ask questions within a safe environment.Below are some links to lesson plans for the sessions, some resources which will be used with the children and a knowledge organiser showing some of the vocabulary the children will be using.
Development of baby during pregnancy lesson
Note: Parents have the right to withdraw their child from lessons covering the science of conception and the development of a baby during pregnancy if they wish. We would encourage you to contact school to discuss these lessons in further detail if you wish before choosing to withdraw your child.
