Congratulations to the Grade 6 students for finishing primary school! You've worked hard, grown so much, and overcome many challenges along the way. This is a big milestone, and you should be proud of everything you've achieved. As you move on to the next chapter of your education, remember that this is just the beginning of an exciting journey filled with new opportunities and experiences. Keep believing in yourselves and always strive to do your best. Well done, and good luck with everything ahead! - Mrs. Mikala, Miss Lay and Ms. Elia. 

 

Here's a look back at some fun moments from Grade 6...

Reading

This term in Reading, students have been concentrating on developing key skills in reading, including analysing texts to understand their deeper meanings, critiquing ideas and arguments, and making connections between different pieces of information. They have also been actively questioning the material to explore various perspectives and synthesizing their insights to form well-rounded interpretations. These strategies have helped enhance their critical thinking and comprehension abilities, enabling them to engage more deeply with the texts they encounter.

Writing

This term, students completed a special memory book - a project where they had the opportunity to write and draw about themselves and their families. They shared meaningful details about their lives, such as favourite activities, cherished traditions, and special moments with loved ones. Through this creative process, they expressed their individuality and strengthened their connection to their family stories. These memory books serve as a wonderful keepsake that the students can take home, preserving their personal memories and family bonds for years to come. It's a meaningful way for them to reflect on their lives and celebrate their unique stories.

 

Maths

This term, students have been working on a variety of important mathematical concepts, including fractions and decimals, where they’ve developed skills in comparing, ordering, and performing calculations. They’ve also focused on addition problem solving, as well as subtraction, multiplication, and division. In addition, students have explored shapes and transformations, learning how to identify different geometric figures and understand their properties, as well as how shapes change through movements like rotations, reflections, and translations. These topics have helped students strengthen their overall mathematical understanding and problem-solving abilities.
