• Year 6 brings together academic rigour and creative expression in a curriculum designed to prepare your child for the next stage of learning. With thoughtful integration of literature, history, science, geography, nature study, art, music, and physical education, students develop the skills and understanding needed for confident, independent study.

    This course is aligned with the Australian Curriculum, as well as the NSW and WA Curriculum frameworks. Rooted in Charlotte Mason’s philosophy, our program encourages narration, critical thinking, and meaningful connections across subjects—helping your child grow in knowledge, character, and curiosity.

    Enrol in our Year 6 Program

      • Year 6 Semester A (Term 1 & 2)

        Semester One opens with a rich blend of literature, science, civics, and nature study.

        In My Homeschool English 6A, students explore Animal Farm, practise sentence-level grammar and composition, and build fluency through astronomy-themed dictations.

        In Term 2, students read The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and practise dictation drawn from the novel.

        Copywork strengthens cursive handwriting through inspiring literature and life quotes, naturally supporting Healthy Conversations themes such as identity, emotional wellbeing, and respectful relationships.

        Weekly nature journaling continues with Bush Days by Amy Mack, encouraging close observation of Australian plants, birds, and seasonal changes.

        Science begins with Circling the Sun, a narrative introduction to Earth and Space Science accompanied by science videos that reinforce key astronomy concepts.

        This is followed by Habitats: How Nature Adapts and Thrives, where students investigate ecosystems, adaptation, sustainability, and traditional knowledge through living science readings and notebooking.

        Humanities are taught through an integrated approach: History Makers introduces major world events of the 20th century, while Prime Ministers of Australia (Part A) helps students understand how Australian leaders responded to those global changes, including immigration and regional relationships.

        Students continue developing historical thinking through the My Homeschool Book of Centuries, adding maps, dates, and key figures as they read.

        Poetry, music, art appreciation, and a hands-on design project complete a well-rounded and creative semester.

      • Year 6 Semester B (Term 3 & 4)

        Semester Two deepens students’ learning through literature, world geography, financial literacy, science, and modern history.

        In My Homeschool English 6B, students explore Shakespearean themes of character and compassion, refine their writing through structured lessons, and build nature vocabulary with The Naturalist Notebook in Term 3.

        In Term 4, students complete Latin Copywork, a gentle language study where they explore Latin roots and practise simple translations using side-by-side Latin and English passages from Genesis Chapter 1.

        English also supports Economics and Business outcomes in Term 4 through practical lessons on money, saving, consumer decisions, and real-world financial responsibility.

        These activities strengthen writing skills while helping students develop everyday financial literacy and wise decision-making.

        Science continues with Science Strands Year 6, covering electricity, circuits, energy generation, fair testing, recycling, and environmental stewardship, supported by short instructional videos that demonstrate key physics and chemistry concepts.

        Humanities expand into global learning through Exploring Asia: Pleasant Talk of Places and the Asian Map Notebook, giving students a deeper understanding of Asia’s physical and cultural diversity, Australia’s regional relationships, and global citizenship.

        Alongside this, History Makers (Part B) and Prime Ministers of Australia (Part B) help students connect Australia’s modern story with major world developments, reinforcing civics and historical thinking.

        Creative expression continues through art, music, PDHPE, and a hands-on design project, creating a balanced, interconnected finish to the year.
