I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to Franklin Class, we are a mixed age class made up of children in Year 5 and Year 6.
“Learn from yesterday, live for today and hope for tomorrow.” Albert Einstein
The Franklin Class team work tirelessly with the children and parents alike to ensure that everyone can make progress, enjoy their time in school and develop their love of learning so that they can achieve their full potential in our nurturing and vibrant classroom environment. We pride ourselves on giving the children exciting and unforgettable opportunities that are rewarding and challenging so that everyone can shine their light (Matthew 5: 16). We provide a gateway of discovery through our creative and diverse curriculum, with topics covered such as the Britain’s Role in WWII, the Ancient Greeks, Sustainability and Our Natural Environment, alongside all of our curriculum subjects, as we support the children on their journey to becoming global disciples who positively impact on the world around us. We pride ourselves on building resilience as our children reach near the end of their learning journey within our school. The teaching and learning in our most senior classroom will help to ensure that the children are supported to develop confidence and independence in preparation for the next chapter of their lives. Alongside supporting children to reach their academic potential, they are also given many additional responsibilities around the school to help ensure the children are ready for their transition to secondary school. Through hard work, determination, resilience and dedication to their learning the children in Franklin Class also make many happy memories, lasting friendships and develop an increased confidence to take with them on their adventures further up the school and when making that transition to their new secondary school.
