PE Days
PE in Year 6 is on Monday and Friday. Please make sure that you wear PE kit to school on these days. Our PE kit is plain black shorts, leggings or joggers; plain white or school PE t-shirt; school jumper.
Homework
Please support your child at home by encouraging them to read their personal reading book regularly and to make use of Times Table Rockstars to improve their fluency with their multiplication and division facts. Children will be sent home with spellings to learn each week, alongside a worksheet to support this.
Useful Information
Children should bring a water bottle from home but are asked not to bring in their own stationary. Mobile phones are permitted for those children who walk to and from school on their own but must hand these in to the class teacher at the beginning of each school day.
