Welcome to Eagles Class!

​

Eagles class is one of three year 6 classes at Brampton Ellis Primary School. The teacher is Miss Doherty and we are also well supported by Mrs Walling. We are delighted to welcome you to Year 6 and look forward to the exciting year ahead. This is a very important stage of your child’s journey through school, as they continue to reach their full potential and prepare for the transition to secondary school. Within our learning environment, together, we will explore fascinating topics, face new challenges, build confidence and celebrate achievements together!

 

This year in Eagles, we’ll be exploring a wide range of exciting and thought-provoking topics, including World War II, The Americas, and Crime and Punishment. To enrich our learning, we’ll also enjoy a selection of brilliant novels that connect with these themes, deepening our understanding and sparking our imaginations. In Eagles, we are passionate about fostering a genuine love of reading. We believe that books open doors—to knowledge, creativity, and lifelong success. Children are encouraged to read regularly both in school and at home, and we are committed to supporting each child in discovering the books that inspire and engage them most.

 

In Eagles, our classroom ethos is rooted in our school values of Respect, Responsibility, and Resilience. Through these values, we aim to maintain a happy and supportive learning environment, in which everyone’s opinions and ideas are valued and where an enthusiasm for learning is shared. We see ourselves as a supportive community where teamwork, kindness, and empathy are just as important as effort and achievement. Together, we will build an environment where every child feels valued, confident, and motivated to reach their full potential—both academically and personally.

A few practical reminders:

 

Uniform: Pupils should arrive in full, correct school uniform each day (details can be found on the school website).

 

PE days: Indoor PE takes place on Thursday and outdoor PE on Friday. Please ensure your child has the correct kit in school on these days.

 

Water bottles: Children should bring a labelled water bottle daily.

 

We believe that with effort and perseverance, every child can achieve wonderful things. In Eagles, children are encouraged to share their ideas, take pride in their work and approach challenges with determination. Together, we will make Year 6 a year to remember and make some amazing memories along the way!

 

Updates about class news and learning will be shared regularly on ClassDojo, which is also the best way to get in touch with myself or Mrs Walling.

 

We are excited to share this journey with you!
