Welcome to Year Six

Welcome back and a very warm welcome to Year 6!  We have a great year to look forward to with an exciting, packed curriculum and not forgetting our residential trip to Brathay in January (20th-24th) 2025. 

PE/GAMES 

Our PE and Games days are on TUESDAY and FRIDAY.  Please ensure that children attend school in the correct kits on these days.

HOMEWORK

 Children are expected to complete 3 sessions of Reading Plus every week, to be regularly reading their reading challenge books (see below) and to complete their book reviews on time.  Books will be changed on Wednesdays.  

SPELLING TEST

Children will be tested on their spellings every FRIDAY.

READING BOOK

Every child has been issued with a reading book.  Each child will be expected to complete a book review after they have read their book. This should be completed either in blue pen of pencil (not felt tip) to a high standard and have lots of detail. Children are encouraged to read every day at school and home.  Please note that books are only changed on Wednesdays.  It is important that your child sticks to the deadline, as we are trying to encourage the importance of taking responsibility for their own learning and being efficient readers.

CHRISTMAS READING 

Every child has a reading book and has been given an extended period of time in which to finish it.  Their book and book review must be finished and brought into school on Wednesday 8th January 2025.
