Year 6 key topics

Key Topics This Term

We start the year with our mountains and volcanoes topic. We learn all about the conquest of Everest in 1953 and research the lives of Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary (the first two men up Everest). For the last two years, we have been lucky and had a live video chat with Jamling Norgay in Nepal (the son of Tenzing Norgay) and asked him all about Everest. In Science, we are studying evolution and inheritance. Our topic for RE this term is Judaism. In art, the children are looking at Aboriginal Dot Art.
