Year 6
Weekly Update
Friday 24th June 2022
Dear Year 6 Parents and Carers,
We have had another busy week in Year 6. We have spent a few afternoons practising for our leavers' assembly - the children are progressing well and we are excited to perform!
Our learning next week:
In Maths, we will continue to recap fractions with use of the NCETM Ready to Progress documents.
In English, we will finish our creative writing on the Dream Giver and publish our work in neat. We hope to start our When I was Young booklets, which will involve the children bringing in photos of themselves when they were younger.
In foundation subjects, we will continue our PSHE on puberty and change, where we will spend the week looking at healthy relationships. We will produce a piece of artwork on the civil rights movement in Art.
A few notices:
Swimming – We have now finished swimming; the children will therefore not require their costumes on Tuesday / Thursday.
Celebration of work – We have our Celebration of Work evening fast approaching (13th July) and we would appreciate the children bringing in any of their outstanding work that has been sent home over the year – including their periscopes, model Titanics, and World Book Day dioramas.
Photographs – In English we will be building booklets of when the children were younger. We would like the children to bring in some photos of themselves throughout their childhood that they can include in their booklets. A few things: we cannot have emails sent with the photos as this is not in line with our Safeguarding Policy, so please can you provide a hard copy. If you have some cherished photos that you do not want to be damaged, you can always photocopy them at home, and send in the copies.
Leavers' assemblies – Our Year 6 will be performing their Leavers' Assembly on Tuesday 12th July and Wednesday 13th July. More communication will be sent out about this in due time, but another date for the diary.
Leavers' BBQ – On Friday 15th July we will be hosting our Leavers' BBQ. The children will be invited to spend time on the field enjoying games and a BBQ. More communication will be sent home about this, but just a date for the diary.
