    In Year 5 we threw our airplanes to test #airresistance and explored how #streamlining affects the distance paper planes travel. We know this isn't a #fairtest as too many variables can't be controlled but what's a science lesson without a bit of fun? #scienceinprimary

    Birch class ventured out for a local walk this week. We've been learning all about what makes our local area special in geography and were lucky enough to have Mercedes tell us all about her business on a boat. Back at school, we made trails using things we found on our route.

    Letters like this can make a real difference. @Hasbro - please take some time to read it. One of our Year 4 pupils has some feedback for you. He has taken the time to express it politely, respectfully and positively. We hope you can help. Thank you!

    This week Y2 are writing about #TheRobotandtheBluebird. We had a wonderful afternoon stepping into the robot’s shoes and describing how he felt. We came up with words like ‘devastated’, ‘lonely’, ‘empty’ and ‘heartbroken’. We love this story already 🤖 #year2writing

    At Springfield, we are a community. We ask everyone - our staff, children and families - to make six commitments to one another. A big thank you to the very talented Miss Vikki for bringing these to life with a new hall display. What an inspiring way to welcome our children back.

    In our story 'Storm' by Sam Usher the main character flies a kite with his grandad. Inspired by this, we made kites to explore how windy it has been today. This links to our learning about the weather in geography and science too!

Our Learning

At Springfield, Year 6 is a special year where we take challenges and broaden our horizons. We work hard to achieve our targets and leave Springfield ready and excited for secondary school.

We start the year learning about the World Wars and how they shaped the world we live in. From stories set during war time, to the artwork inspired by the conflicts, we gain a real insight into the lived experience and significance of both the First and Second World Wars. As part of the IntoUniversity programme, we are lucky enough to enjoy a focus week dedicated to this history learning. During this week, we visit HMS Belfast and Churchill’s Cabinet War Rooms to walk in the footsteps of those who lead Britain in a time of crisis. These are some of our most memorable trips at Springfield!

Another key moment in our Year 6 learning journey is our residential trip to Kench Hill. As a class family, we live away from home for a whole week and explore the Kent countryside. No trip to Kench Hill is complete without very muddy wellies and songs around the campfire. The photos we take together become treasured memories – a vital keepsake from our time at Springfield.

As the Summer term approaches, we look ahead to the future and take part in transition programmes to ensure we are prepared for the next step. As well as this, we let our creative energy flow as we prepare for our end of year production, which is always celebrated both with the school and our families during the evening performance. We also get active in the summer weather and enjoy cycling training and Bike Around the Borough. By investing time in cycling skills, we prepare to be healthy and environmentally conscious citizens in the future.

At Springfield, being a Year 6 means something very special: it means being a role model to our younger children. We take pride in setting an example and caring for others. Our Year 6’s take leadership opportunities to use their pupil voice in School Council meetings throughout the year.

Every Year 6 class leaves its mark on Springfield – they are a key pillar of our school community and we miss them when they leave. The best thing is when they return as proud Year 7s (and beyond!) to share their successes. We are proud of the foundations we lay at Springfield for bright and exciting futures.
