Welcome to Year 6
Welcome Message
What to expect in Year 6
Year 6 will be your final year in primary school and it will be your opportunity to show how much you have grown in your time at Denton West End.
In Year 6, our lessons will build upon the learning and knowledge that you have acquired in Year 5. The work we will do will be challenging and fun (so bring your growth mind-set!).
As the oldest children in the school, you will need to set a good example for the younger children, both in terms of work and behaviour.
