Year 6

Weekly Update - Friday 9th May 2025

Summary of this week: 

Dear Year 6 Parents and Carers,

 

As we find ourselves within reach of our end of year assessments, I wanted to just say a huge well done to the children - we have been so impressed with their commitment to learning! Please ensure a good weekend of rest and we look forward to opening our gates early to welcome them.

  Learning next week:

Reduced timetable due to SATs.

 

Foundation:

History – we will study the Windrush movement and the impact its significance.

PSHE – we will be looking at loss and grief, we will of course handle this sensitively.

Science – we will be looking at plant adaptations and how different plants have adapted to different climates and environments.

 Homework:

No homework due to SATs.  


 Notices & Reminders:

SATs breakfast: We will be opening the school to Year 6 early during SATs week, in which we invite the children to come in at 8:15 and meet in the junior hall for breakfast with their peers. There is no pressure to attend, but it is a useful to get the children in and take away some of those nerves before the test begins.

SATs equipment: Please ensure all children arrive to school with the following as a minimum: pen, pencil, rubber, ruler, water bottle - we will supply other subject specific equipment.

SATs Picnic Friday 16th: To celebrate the hard work and the end of the assessments, we will be spending Friday afternoon on the field playing games and enjoying a break. Can we please ask that all children bring a packed lunch on Friday, as we will be eating our lunches on the top field and will not be in the lunch hall as usual. Historically, children have been allowed to bring in one unhealthy snack – as a treat.

Art: Please can any shoeboxes be kept for our art lessons that require a small box? A cereal box will suffice if needed. The children do not need this for next week’s lesson, but will need one in the future.

Summer fair: There is an opportunity to support at the summer fair that we are offering to our Year 6 pupils. If you are interested in helping, please email carrieevans03@gmail.com. The stalls in need of help are:
Catch the Rat
Coconut shy
Hook a Duck/one other stall tbc
Time slots are 1130-12.15, 12.15-1, 1-1.45 and 1.35-2.30 so preferably 12 volunteers in total (the first slot clashes with year 6 football in the arena btw so need non footballers from 11.30-12.15 )
