Welcome to Year 6
We are excited to welcome all our students to this pivotal year in their educational journey. Year 6 is a time of growth, exploration and preparation for the transition to secondary school.

We encourage open communication between students, parents and teachers, and this class page will serve as a valuable resource for class updates, homework pages and important information. Together, we'll make Year 6 a year of growth, discovery, and success.
