Year 6 Student Information Area

Welcome to Ashford Christ Church below are a few links to specific points of information available within the
Ashford Christ Church website. As well as links to Year 6 Competition Area within our online classroom area.
You know that school is a place to learn about many new and amazing things. At Ashford Christ Church we
believe ‘new life’ can come from ‘learning’.

Community

A ‘community’ is a group of people who share the same experiences or belong to the same place. Your school
is a community as you share your experience of learning with other students. At Ashford Christ Church you will
also belong to a Community which is a group of students and teachers who you will work with during FORM
TIME and enjoy ASSEMBLIES with. They Are ASH, ELM, FIR, OAK and YEW. For more detail for specific
communities Click the corresponding link to your community on the left. Each community has a Head of
Community and Pastorial Support Manager. Your Community will also have 12 Senior Students. These students
will be available to help you. They are easily reconizable as they wear black school shirts.
