Lovelace Class -Year 6

Year 6 @ Mount Street Primary School

Year 6 Gallery 2025-26

_{Autumn Term in Year 6}

This Year, our Year 6 class will be named after the inspirational person Ada Lovelace . She was a 19th-century mathematician who is famous for writing the first computer program for Charles Babbage's mechanical computer, the Analytical Engine. Born in 1815, she was the daughter of the poet Lord Byron and was encouraged to study science and math by her mother. She recognized that machines like the Analytical Engine could do more than just calculations and predicted their future uses, such as creating graphics and music. Ada's ideas and understanding are basis for computer programming today. We want our Year 6 children to be inspired by her jAda Lovelace and, just like her, look for possibilities and develop their own skills and ideas this year.
