Welcome to Eagles Class

We are supported by Mr Dick, Mrs Lunt and Miss O. Eagles is a Year 6 class that runs on a blend of independence, teamwork, and high expectations. Pupils take increasing responsibility for their learning, from organising their daily tasks to leading group projects and discussions. Lessons are structured but lively, with plenty of opportunities for problemsolving, creative thinking, and collaborative work.

The class culture emphasises resilience, curiosity, and opportunities to share and reflect so everyone feels confident to contribute and push themselves. It’s a space where students prepare for secondary school while still enjoying the warmth and identity of a closeknit team.

In Eagles Class, each day begins with Morning Maths and quiet reading to settle pupils into learning. Daily English and Maths lessons, supported by regular arithmetic practice, build fluency, pace and confidence. Children enjoy four engaging reading sessions each week, linked to the wider curriculum, with foundation subjects woven throughout to deepen connections. We promote active, collaborative learning to help pupils learn from one another, while prioritising physical and mental wellbeing through our approach and regular Fit 15 sessions using the track and gym equipment.

Each day also includes a time of worship, offering space to be still, learn, and reflect together as a community. Our children play an active role in these sessions, often guiding them with thoughtful questions and reflections that we revisit in other areas of the school week.

Reading is the gateway to all learning. In Year 6, whole-class reading strengthens comprehension, fluency and confidence through shared high-quality texts. Teachers model expert reading and thinking aloud, while pupils discuss vocabulary, analyse language and explore themes together. Using the same text promotes rich discussion, builds stamina for complex material, and ensures all pupils can access ambitious content and contribute to thoughtful dialogue.

Snack and Current Affairs: Each day, we sit together to eat our healthy snacks and watch Newsround. This enables rich discussion around current affairs and helps us to empathise with those around the world, not just in our Oakmeadow community.
