Welcome to Year 6 at Kents Hill Park School!
We are Mandela Class. Nelson Mandela was a confident, independent and incredibly forward-thinking civil rights advocate who passionately believed that we all have the power to make a difference.
“What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived; it is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.”

As we move into the second half of the school year, it is important that Year 6 children develop their organisational skills and independence. As you will already be aware, children are to bring their own clear pencil case to school each day, containing the following equipment:
2 black pens, blue pen, red pen, white board pen, 2 pencils, coloured pencils, pencil sharpener, 30cm ruler, small glue stick, 2 different coloured highlighters and an eraser.
These should be replaced as required throughout each term.
Please note, scissors have been removed from this list and will be provided in class as required.
