The Year 6 children this week have continued to do what Sheen Mount children do every year when it comes to taking their SATs – they have shown a calm and mature attitude and endeavoured to make the most of their ability. All of the teachers have been really impressed with the children’s attitude. Here are some of the children relaxing before Wednesday morning’s maths papers at their pre-SATs breakfast.
Over the past two weeks, the children in Year 6 have enjoyed developing their music skills by learning to play ‘Ripples’ by Lily May on a range of tuned percussion instruments.
