Upper Juniors

The Y5/6 classroom was added to the school in 2002 and we enjoy wonderful, far-reaching views of Wharfedale and Bolton Abbey.  In our class we believe that learning should be challenging and fun; that we should work hard independently and as a team, and that we should have responsibilities in class and around school.

Mrs Addy, the headteacher, is responsible for teaching on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Mrs McGowan teaches on Thursday and Friday.  Mrs Nelson teaches science, Mrs McGowan teaches PE, Mrs Turvey teaches music, Mrs Hatch teaches French and Mrs Petty teaches art.  All members of staff collaborate with each other to make sure that lessons are relevant, interesting and build on prior learning.

As well as our lessons we enjoy lots of activities and events throughout the year including music and drama festivals, visits to local secondary schools, visits and visits linked to our work, lots of sporting events and competitions and residential visits to both Sheffield and Scarborough.
