Oak Class EU Referendum Results

After a tense morning at the Polling Station, I am pleased to announce that 64% of Oak Class members voted to stay in the EU; 35% voted to leave.

Well done to all of you for making such an effort and being enthusiastic.

Oak Class EU Debate

Welcome to the Oak Class Borough Green Primary EU Debate.

This week we have been politicians, researching our focus arguments - for or against staying in the EU.

From managing and allocating our campaign budgets to creating our own merchandise and radio adverts, we have not only developed our knowledge about the EU referendum but also learnt how to work as a team, work independently and think like a politician.

With special guests, Mrs Sandberg and the new Borough Green Primary governor, elected Oak class members diligently and determinedly presented their group's case and dealt with an array of difficult and thought-provoking questions.

Watch our debate first-hand and be ready to be amazed; we certainly have some politicians in the making!  

And one more thing... remember to vote on the 23 June 2016.  Your vote counts!

Picture and videos to follow shortly.

You can view the PowerPoint presentation (made by all the students) here.

Goodnight...

Year 6, you were truly wonderful all week; your teachers and Mr Oates and Mr Sparshott have come home with so many happy memories of a fantastic week.  We have loved getting to know you, seeing other quirky sides to your personalities, watching you grow in independence, seeing you try new things and enjoying your humour and friendships.  You must be exhausted now so catch up on lots of sleep this weekend and enjoy being with your families again.  We'll see you on Monday refreshed and ready for lots of hard work. Night night, sleep tight.

ps Elliot and Boog and Mr Weeny, the bestest friends you've ever seeny.  Elliot is smart, Boog is all heart and Mr Weeny's legs are rather teeny...
