Welcome to your second term as Y6 pupils!

This term our focus is The Windrush, specifically what life was like for the Windrush generation when they arrived in Britain but also their heritage and what it was like to be a British African-Caribbean citizen. We will study the Caribbean in all its glory, what islands are part of it, what language and culture they have and what climate they share. We will focus on the Empire Windrush, what its voyage was like and what purpose it had. We will look at what life was like for the Windrush generation before and after they arrived in Britain. A huge focus will be on racial discrimination and the effect it had on these people at the time and the impact that the arrival of the Windrush has had on Britain today.

In Art, we will study various artists who have produced work inspired by The Windrush, using inspiration from their work to create our own.

In Computing, we will create quizzes using PurpleMash based on a topic of our choice. 

In Science, we will study Space and will continue to focus on Chemistry and that of materials.
