Welcome to 5/6LT: another exciting year in Woodlands Primary School!

Hello everyone! I am Miss Tyrer and I am delighted to be entering my 8th year of teaching at Woodlands. I cannot wait to spend another year as part of such an exciting and creative school, and I am thrilled to be continuing my journey at Woodlands as a Year 5/6 teacher and as the phase leader for UKS2.

I love teaching all subjects and seeing children shine across the curriculum. This year, I am excited to be leading English across the whole school! I am incredibly passionate about developing a love of reading and writing in all children, and I love how writing allows us to express our creativity in so many different ways.
When I am not in school, I am often busy renovating my very first home which I bought in July 2021 (and is still very much work in progress!), and trying to stop my pet cat – Hugo – from destroying the place! I also really enjoy going to concerts, and spending time with family and friends.
I believe that in order to succeed it is vital to work as a team and support one another through all of the exciting challenges a new year can bring. I cannot wait to get to know you all better and learn all about your hopes, dreams and aspirations!

Welcome to Year 6!

Hello. I am Mrs Megginson and I will be your teacher in September. I am really excited that we will be working together! This will be my seventh year teaching at Woodlands and I am the History lead at our school.

Outside of school I like to spend time with my family and friends. I have 2 children. My son has just finished university and my daughter is in high school, but it doesn’t seem that long ago since they were in Year 6! We are all big music fans in our family - we like to go to music concerts and festivals together, go camping and walking in the woods or on a beach.

I am thrilled to be part of the Y6 team. We have worked together as part of the Upper Key Stage 2 team and we want to make your final year at Woodlands one to remember! We already have lots of exciting ideas and plans in place for you. I know we will have a great year together. I want our classroom to be a busy, happy place and I can’t wait for us to get going.

Hello! I am Miss Woodland and I am extremely excited to be going into my third year at Woodlands. We have lots of wonderful new things to learn about in year 6 but I am especially going to enjoy getting creative in art, design and technology.

Whilst at home, I like to spend as much time as I can with my daughter, Isabelle, my partner Graham and our mischievous cat Hattie. We love to go for ice cream and take long walks on the beach to see If we can find treasure.

I am really looking forward to being in upper key stage 2 and working with you in September. I know our classroom will be busy but it will also be full of fun! I cannot wait for the year ahead.

Welcome to Year 6!

Year 6 will have P.E and COJO's on Mondays and Fridays (Year 5 - 5/6LT also Mondays and Fridays)

Please ensure children have a weather-appropriate kit for these P.E. days, which includes a white top and black/navy joggers/shorts. Both PE sessions may take place outside for this half term, so it may be best for children to wear an outdoor kit for both lessons.
