Welcome to Term 6 – The Final Chapter of Our Eagles Journey!
 

As we step into our final term at Ketton, there’s a real sense of excitement and anticipation in the air. Term 6 is always a memorable one – packed with unique opportunities, enriching experiences, and moments we’ll carry with us for years to come.

It’s set to be a truly unforgettable end to an incredible year!
 

Maths with Purpose

This term in maths, we’ll be applying everything we’ve learned to real-life situations. Through a range of exciting projects, we’ll be tackling real-world problems that require budgeting, reasoning, and strategic thinking. From planning a holiday within a set budget, to creating shopping lists that take advantage of offers and discounts, to designing our very own zoo business (complete with animal costs, staff wages, and profit margins), we’ll be sharpening our maths skills in meaningful and practical ways.
 

Expressive, Creative Writing

In English, we’ll be showcasing our writing talents through a variety of short pieces that highlight the diverse skills we’ve developed in Year 6. Expect to see gripping horror stories inspired by our Crime and Punishment topic, imaginative narratives from the perspectives of different animals, persuasive writing, poetry, and more. It’s all about expressing ourselves creatively and confidently across a range of genres and styles.
 

Supercharged Science

Our final science unit is all about Electricity. We'll be investigating how electrical circuits work, exploring the impact of voltage, and learning to design and build our own circuits for specific functions. This unit will help us understand the components of a circuit, recognise symbols, and develop our scientific inquiry skills through practical experiments and investigations.
 

A Journey Through Crime and Punishment

Our fascinating history topic continues as we explore the evolution of crime and punishment through the ages. From the gruesome methods of medieval justice to the reformative systems of modern times, we’ll be comparing, contrasting, and discussing how societies have handled crime in wildly different ways. It’s a topic that continues to capture our curiosity and spark thoughtful debate.
 

A Term of Big Events and Lasting Memories

As our time at Eagles Primary draws to a close, Term 6 will be filled with exciting milestones. We’ll be preparing for our end-of-year production, where every pupil will have the chance to shine on stage. We’re also looking forward to Athletics Day at Corby, Sports Day down the Sports Complex, Bikeability sessions, and of course, the much-anticipated residential trip during the final week. Alongside these major events, there’ll be lots of other exciting bits and bobs going on to make this term truly spectacular.
