During the ‘stormy’ lunch times Year 6 have been going about the school and supporting in other classes.

I decided to go for a wander and see how helpful the year 6s were being and was WOWed by the experience.

I saw many examples of engaged and supportive children.

Here’s a few pictures!

Please comment on the things that you have been doing to support the children in their classrooms or the school community.

  2. Ilyas I.

    I went to 3 red and helped children with blog comments. I also tidied the classroom and helped sharpen the pencils. I think it is a good experience for both years.

  3. Saira S.

    I really enjoyed staying in and helping children during our lunches because we can now talk to younger children and have a bond with them.

  4. Ouzair A.

    i think i was in 2 red but when i was there i was helping everyone. also we always had readers some of them was speaking slow and fast but at the end of the day we all had fun (they took forever to read).

    I was in 5 Red and we were sharpening pencils but it was nice to help others teachers from different classes!! Have a great holiday everyone!

  7. Mrs Raja-Khan

    The children have been absolutely amazing. The children that helped in Reception Blue on Tuesday were excellent role models. They helped by reading stories, helping the children make houses out of Lego and decorating hearts. Some even helped to cut out more hearts when the resources had been used.
    Thank you very much

    1. Mr Inman

      I saw those hearts! When the year 6s try hard, the younger children respond positively. It’s been a great start.

  8. Umaiza T.

    I enjoyed this as it was fun to do instead of playing games and stay in our classes.

    1. Mr Inman

      That’s excellent Umaiza, I hope you continue to enjoy it and gain valuable life experiences from it.

  9. Mrs Sharif

    We have had some amazing helpers in 1 Red. They have shown excellent manners and completed their task with great responsibility. Thank you ! We truly appreciate your support.

    1. Mr Inman

      Thank you Mrs Sharif. I’m proud to work in 6 White. When the author was in the other day, nearly entry child said thankyou when I handed them the worksheet. They have excellent manners.

  10. Hamaad D.

    Well done everyone. I hope you are also having fun.

    1. Mr Inman

      I’m so pleased to hear that you’re having fun. Helping people and doing jobs doesn’t have to be a chore! You take from life what you put into it! Approach a task with a smile and a positive attitude and more often than not, the task will be far easier.

  11. Ridwan U.

    I think I was helpful, I had played with 4 white and had read with some of the members of 4 white.

    1. Mr Inman

      Well done Ridwan! I’m sure you were too!

  12. Mrs Walker

    We have had some super helpers in 3 Blue, during wet play. They have helped and supported the children with reading and been really engaging during lesson time too.
    They have been a pleasure to have in our class and we shall look forward to having them after the holidays.

    1. Mr Inman

      Thank you Mrs Walker. Afsana was an absolute credit from what I saw. She was supporting with reading and 100% engaged.

  13. Miss Ramsell

    Thank you year 6 for all your help. It is great that you have been supporting the children with their work and their reading.

    1. Mr Inman

      Thank you Ms Ramsell. Maybe the year 6s could have a go at reading the class novel? We’ve got some excellent readers this year!

  14. Mrs Latham

    Thank you to the lovely year 6s helping in 4B. You’ve shown excellent responsibility, manners and care in carrying out your tasks!

    1. Mr Inman

      You have some excellent children in there. It was lovely to see the year 6s helping reception children with their maths work.

  15. Head Teacher

    Excellent attitudes and great role models, well done.

    1. Mr Inman

      They should be proud Mrs Frankish.

      1. Head Teacher

        I burst with pride at their actions. Thank you for being a great role model.

  16. Safya S.

    It was fun

    1. Mr Inman

      I bet! Helping others comes naturally to you Safya! Well done.

  17. Xavier M.

    Today was amazing as I was helping year 2 with their maths skills and helping year 2 read better.

    1. Mr Inman

      Well done Xavier, your positivity and enthusiasm for learning is infectious and you’ll be a credit to the children in year 2.

  18. Miss Smith

    The boys supporting in 1White have been an absolute credit to their teachers and their team! They are reliable, helpful and caring. We truly appreciate your support! Thank you!

    1. Mr Inman

      They sure know their way round a box of cubes!!

  19. Shabaz A.

    I have read with 2 red children and help Mrs Brownie with sticking in sheets of paper in their books.

    1. Mr Inman

      Well done Shabaz. It may have been an auto correct typo, but just so you know, she’s called Mrs Browning.

    2. Miss Vega

      I am certain Mrs Browning appreciated all of your help Shabaz! You are an asset!

      1. Mrs Penavega

        We certainly appreciated the help in 2 Red. The children who visited us, including Shabaz, were so mature and helpful. We look forward to seeing them again soon.

  20. James H.

    Thank you

    1. Mr Inman

      This is an area that you should thrive in James as you’re always polite and kind. πŸ˜€

    I have been selected to work for reception red. It’s fun to go down younger years and see what they have been doing, learning new names and possibly make some younger friends while we work with them! I don’t read with them as there only in reception but I have been helping sad children, helping them to create new friends and possibly have made them a best friend forever! I hope we have more wet plays so we can spend more time with them!

    1. Mr Inman

      This is one of the most lovely comments that I’ve ever read on the blog. It’s amazing how much satisfaction we can get from making someone else’s life better!

    2. Miss Vega

      It is wonderful watching friendships blossom isn’t it! I am sure they will remember how you helped them forever!

  22. Elyas S.

    I really enjoyed helping other teachers.

    1. Mr Inman

      Your personality really suits helping and supporting others Elyas. Maybe you could teach the younger children how to do a rubiks cube (without a blindfold)!!

  23. Yalda N.

    I love helping others as it also inspires them to help others as well. πŸ‘‰πŸ½πŸ‘ˆπŸ½πŸ˜ƒ

    2. Miss Vega

      It is contagious!

  24. Yalda N.

    I have listened to people read and have cleaned up areas such as the book corner in 5B.

    1. Mr Inman

      Well done Yalda. I was thinking about doing some reading buddies when you’re up there so you read with the same 2 or 3 children? I’ll speak to you about it after the break.

  25. Reece T.

    I have helped reception blue sticking in learning learning

    1. Mr Inman

      The children supporting in reception have been excellent. It’s such a big help for the teachers to have jobs like this done.
