Class 6 - Badger

All the badgers in Badger Class have to work REALLY hard all year long but they also have lots of fun along the way. As well as their annual residential trip to the Isle of Wight (just after summer half term in 2024), they also have other excursions which can include a trip to Petworth to help tidy the graveyard where the victims of the 1942 school bombing are buried, and a fun-packed day out to Littlehampton near the end of the Summer term. We have new topics for 2023/24 including Maafa (a study of the ancient kingdoms on the African continent, together with learning about African enslavement), Frozen Kingdom and Britain at War.

Badger Class children are the oldest in the school and they know that, with this, comes increased responsibility, including their roles as Buddies to Robin class - they try very hard to carry out these responsibilities to the best of their ability and all enjoy representing the school at various locality events.

The pupils of Badger Class like to make the very most of the time they have together, especially towards the end of the Summer term, before they head off to pastures new. We, at Plaistow and Kirdford Primary School, are always very sad to wave them goodbye in July (Mrs Powell and Ms Smith ALWAYS cry!) and hope they always know they will be warmly welcomed back if ever they want to visit us again.
