Welcome to our class page for this academic year.  Throughout the year we will populate this page with our learning and experiences.  Please check back regularly for updates and our latest news. 

General Election

We held our own General Election in Year 6. Each table was assigned a major political party at random and had to elect their party leader. From there, the children designed their own party posters and wrote speeches, as well as taking questions from the audience and then casting their votes. Excellent work by all involved- well done!

Results were as follows:
Green - 48%
Labour- 15%
Reform- 15%
Liberal Democrats- 11%
Conservatives- 11%
