Year 6: Hadid Class

Dame Zaha Hadid was born in Baghdad and came to live and work in London as an architecture student. Hadid was an extremely successful architect, with her buildings being visible all around the world today. Her buildings often use geometric shapes to create dynamic, fluid structures. The London Aquatic Centre in nearby Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park was designed by Hadid. Hadid was the first woman to receive the RIBA Gold Medal in recognition for her work.

In Year 6 children have the opportunity to write in many different formats, have reading daily, visit the school library to get a book to take home as well as consolidating and progressing their learning in maths through number, shape, data handling and problem solving.

Reading books  go home every afternoon and are brought to school every morning. We encourage the children to read every night. To support maths you could help them practice their mental maths and times tables.

SATs tests will be taken during the Summer Term and the children will be well prepared for what to expect so that they can achieve to the best of their ability.

Reminders:

  •  P.E. lessons are on Mondays and Wednesdays.
  • Please return books every morning in book bags.
