Message from Mrs Hughes to Y6:

Thank you so much for the very thoughtful gifts. I was so touched by your kindness and generosity. It has been an absolute pleasure being in Year 6 and I can honestly say that I have had the best time. I shall take away so many happy memories!

Good luck…

A very happy yet reflective day today. We say thank you and goodbye to the 'irreplaceable' Mrs Hughes after her long and dedicated service to our school. Such heart-felt sentiments from the children all day long have really played on her emotional heart-strings.

Thank you Mrs Hughes - please…

Here is a slection of our fabulous posters we have created in our computing lesson this week. We have been inspired by our recent visit to Port Sunlight to create a poster to advertise the delights and experiences it has to offer! Well done!

We had an incredible afternoon at school today as we welcomed the amazing GB Olympic medallist, Emily Ford!

The atmosphere was buzzing as she arrived to inspire our students with her remarkable journey in sport. Emily kicked off the afternoon with a lively assembly, sharing her experiences in…

A great trip to Port Sunlight last week for Y6.

An inspiring day out learning about the 'census' and how life has changed through the years in the village. We even looked at a census from someone who was on board the Titanic when it sank (a stewardess from Port Sunlight).

Well done Y6 -…

In our Friday assembly, we celebrate our Superstars!  In each class, a **Behaviour Superstar** and a **Learning Superstar** receive a certificate from our Headteacher, Mr Orme.  We are very proud of all of our children who make everyday special just by being them.

Excellent workshop today Y6!

We were joined by an 'Energy' expert from Evolution. They spoke about different forms of energy (renewable, non-renewable and sustainable). We also studied the science behind electric cars before making our very own cars to race on a track!

An excellent…

Our new Brookside Enrichment club has been a success!

Mrs McLean and Mrs Austin provided a wide range of activities tailored around the interests of the children who took part. We are pleased that the feedback from the children is very positive. We are looking forward to welcoming a new group…

Y6 Online Safety.

Today's lesson was focussed on 'trust' online. We have helped the children with great tips as to how to know if we can trust the reliability of a website.

eg look out for the 'padlock' symbol. Also, the 's' on 'https' stands for 'secure'. If the website starts with…

#### [Y6 Waistcoats](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2024-12-18-12-30-00-y6-waistcoats)

In Design and Technology, we have been designing, assembling and decorating waistcoats.

We have used 'running stitches' and, in some cases, 'back stitches' to join the material at the seams.

We loved doing a fashion show and modelling our final products. I'm sure you all agree - they are…

They will be sitting together to enjoy the pantomime on Thursday!

"Oh yes they will!"
