Year 6
Weekly Update - Friday 23rd May 2025
Summary of this week:
Dear Year 6 Parents and Carers,
We have had a busy week focusing on the leaver’s production, a welcome break from our busy revision!
A huge thank you to the parents and carers who were able to attend our Year 6 PGL workshop – we hope it was useful. The kit list and the medical forms are being sent out for your information and completion. We hope you all have a wonderful half term and a well-deserved rest.
Learning next week:
Foundation:
History – we will be teaching the significance of the Suffragette movement.
PSHE – we will be looking at loss and grief, we will of course handle this sensitively.
Science – We will be looking at plant adaptation.
Homework:
Maths: Recap of prior learning (arithmetic)
Tuesday: English based task (SPAG or reading)
Wednesday: Recap or this week’s learning.
Reading journals to be added to once a week.
Notices & Reminders:
Art: Please can any shoeboxes be kept for our art lessons that require a small box? Some classes only have a few and we will be using these the first week back - a cereal box will suffice if needed.
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. We have had some volunteers come forward already - which is delightful!
Jewellery: We are noticing quite a lot of girls coming in with jewellery, mainly bracelets and necklaces. The school uniform policy says whilst earrings are permitted, other jewellery is not. We would hate for any precious items to be damaged or misplaced, so please make sure they don’t come to school with anything they wouldn’t want to lose.
Swimming: If anyone would like to help volunteer with swimming, please contact your class teacher. FF and BB swim on Tuesday and DF swim on Thursday. All groups swim in the afternoon:
BB – 12:00 – 13:30
FF – 13:30 – 15:00
DF – 12:00 – 13:30
Sports day: The year 6 Sports Day is Fri 13th June 2025 - 1pm - 3pm. Sun cream, hats and water bottles are all encouraged.
