Welcome back Year 6!
Important information
PE - For the first half term PE will be on Monday and Thursday. Please ensure your child has a full PE kit including a white t-shirt, black shorts, black jogging bottoms, a black long sleeved top and trainers.
Homework
- Maths homework (maths booklets) and English homework will be given out on a Friday and will be due in the following Friday.
- Spellings will also be set on a Friday and there will be a spelling test the following Friday. Spellings can be found on the Year 6 page of the school website.
- Reading. It is also incredibly important for your child to continue reading on a regular basis (at least 4 times a week). Your child can read to themselves or to an adult. We would also encourage 'book talk' at home - discussing the plot of the story, the characters, your child's favourite part of the book, making predictions about what they think might happen next.
Area Athletics
Year 5 and 6 competed against other schools in track and field events. They all had a great time and showed generosity in their support of each other.
Children's Forest
On Thursday, Year 6 visited the Children's Forest where they enjoyed exploring the woods, playing games and finding out more about the trees they planted last year. The children demonstrated our school values of Respect and Responsibility throughout the day.
Design Technology - Year 6 have designed and made their own tote bags. They all did a fantastic job!
Year 5 & 6 Christmas Carol Concert
Art masterclass - Y6 studied William Morris and designed their own print block to decorate a piece of textile.
Anti-Bullying Week 11th-15th November - Odd Sock Day
Black Country Museum School Visit
Year 6 Class Assembly - Respect
Science - Light
For their first lesson on Light, the children found out about how we see. The children below are demonstrating how light from a light source shines on an object and then this is reflected into our eyes - this is how we see.
Art Week
During Art Week, each class in school focused on the work of an individual artist. Year 6 studied the portraits of LS Lowry and produced their own portraits in a similar style.
