Growing Up and Change
Year 6 learn about physical and emotional changes and preparing for secondary school.
# Growing Up and Change
In Year 6 we prepare for the changes that come with growing up, including moving to secondary school.
Bodies Change
As we grow, our bodies change. This is normal and happens to everyone. Learning the correct words for our bodies helps us talk confidently and ask questions.
Feelings Can Be Tricky
Growing up can bring strong feelings and worries. Talking to a trusted adult is always a good first step. You are not alone in how you feel.
Moving to Secondary School
A new school brings new friends, new teachers and new routines. Being organised, asking questions and giving yourself time to settle all help. It is okay to feel nervous and excited at once.
Staying Safe Online
As you grow more independent, you will spend more time online. Think carefully about what you share, and tell an adult if anything feels wrong.
