Dear Family,

Welcome to Year 6!  We hope that this will be a happy and successful year for your son or daughter.  They look extremely smart and have made a very good start to the new school year. We are delighted to be teaching them again this year.

Year 6 Staff:

There are two Year 6 classes. 

Mrs Clark is the teacher of Venus class. Miss Turner will support some children in Venus class in the afternoons.

Mrs Davies (Monday & Tuesday) and Mrs Hames (Wednesday, Thursday & Friday) teach Mars class. 

PE

Venus: Tuesday & Friday

Mars: Tuesday & Thursday

Please come to school wearing PE kits on those days - thank you. (Please check website for correct kit.)

We will also practise yoga during the week and do the Golden Mile.  We encourage the children to be as active as posible and love to hear about their sporting achievements outside school.

Home Learning:

The children should bring their diaries and reading books home every day.  Thank you for hearing them read a few times each week and discussing the text  - we really do appreciate your support.

Spellings – 20 spellings will be given on Mondays.  Please practise each day by looking at the word, saying it, covering it, writing it and checking it.  Tests are on Mondays.

SPAG (Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar)– The children will be set pages to do in their SPAG homework books.  These should be handed in on Fridays.

Maths – Again, pages will be set and should be handed in on Fridays.  Please can the children initially try to do the questions without support – then if they need any prompts or help, please do support them.  If you have any concerns, please write a note in the homework book.  Many thanks.

Topic (Learning Journey) – Each term, the children will be asked to do some creative homework linked to our topic, science and/or RE.  This half term, in RE, we are studying the Kingdom of God. Our Geography topic is the Amazon and our Science topic is Life Cycles.

If you have any concerns, please contact the school office and we will be happy to discuss this with you.

Please see the attached power point: Welcome back to school.

With best wishes Mrs Clark, Mrs Davies and Mrs Hames
