Welcome Back – Year 6 Autumn Term

It has been a pleasure to welcome the children back to Aylesford this week. We’ve had a fantastic start to the new school year, and we’re already so impressed with the maturity, enthusiasm, and positive attitudes that our Year 6 pupils are showing in their learning.

Meet the Team for 2025-2026

Our Year 6 staff team includes:

• Mrs. Goulding – Class Teacher
• Miss. Perrier - Class Teacher (Monday-Tuesday)
• Miss. Edkins – Teaching Assistant
• Mrs. Razak – 1:1 Teaching Assistant
• Mrs. Bernall – 1:1 Teaching Assistant
• Mrs. Green – 1:1 Teaching Assistant

Our Autumn Topic: Fallen Fields

This term, our topic is ‘Fallen Fields’, where we will be exploring key events from World War I and World War II.

Through this topic, pupils will:

• Investigate the causes of both wars
• Create a detailed timeline to strengthen their understanding of chronology
• Discover what life was like during the wars, both on the Western Front and at home
• Learn about important aspects of World War II, including:
• Evacuation and rationing
• Roles of civilians
• The Battle of Britain
• Anne Frank’s diary and life in hiding
• The Holocaust
• D-Day and VE Day

We’ll be taking a cross-curricular approach, using our topic to guide learning across Literacy, History, Geography, Art, and Design Technology, allowing pupils to make meaningful connections across subjects.

We’re looking forward to an engaging and reflective term ahead.
