Mrs Foster

Welcome to Year 6!

Your teachers in Year 6 for 2021/22 are Miss Barke and Miss Ellis alongside Mrs Foster, who is our teaching assistant.

In Year 6, we believe that team work, collaboration and good communication is essential to all of our wonderful learners' successes. We know that our Year 6 pupils have a fantastic year ahead of them and we aim to ensure they are ready and confident to take the next step to secondary school.

We aim to create even more lasting memories of Grove Street Primary School to take with you through life through trips, residentials, visitors and a happy, safe and stimulating classroom environment.

PE will take place on a Wednesday afternoon so please ensure children have a full kit with them.

If you have any queries, please don't hesitate to contact one of the Year 6 team.
