Useful Information
Homework - Homework will be given out on a Friday and due in the following Wednesday. Homework in Year 6 will be English, Maths and Spellings. Children are expected to learn their times tables and these are practised daily.
Reading - Children are expected to read at least 5 times a week at home. Please record reading at home in reading records. Reading records will be checked daily. Their achievements are shown on their class reading tree. Every child has an apple on the tree which moves around as their days reading at home increase. It becomes very competitive to be the first one to reach the 'Golden Apple'!
PE - We have 2 PE lessons per week - 1 outdoor and 1 indoor. Please make sure you come to school in your P.E kit on your P.E days. This should be a white t-shirt, black or navy shorts, leggings or joggers, plain navy, black or blue jumper and trainers.
