Welcome to Peacock Class – Year 6
Our class timings:
Start: 8.45am
Finish: 3.15pm
Break: 10.30am - 10.45am
Lunch: 12pm - 1pm
I hope you all had a great summer break and are raring to go!
I am very much looking forward to seeing all of you again in September to learn, explore, develop and most importantly, have fun! We’ve got some really exciting learning planned for this term and I can’t wait to start our new history topic with you: Victorians. Please see the curriculum coverage document to see the Year 6 plan for the rest of the year.
Our PE days are Mondays and Tuesdays- please ensure that your children come into school wearing their PE kits on these days.
Mathletics homework will be set on a Friday and will be due in on Wednesday. Spelling homework will be set on a Tuesday and be due in 2 weeks later (the date of when it is due will be on the top of the sheet, this will fall on a Monday).
In addition to the homework sent, please ensure that your child is reading at home daily. Reading can unlock so many amazing skills and can transport your child to another place and in addition to this can really help with your child’s writing and spelling. They do not need to read to an adult every night, they can read to themselves, but having an adult listen to them read 2-3 times a week is invaluable.
Here is a link which has some recommendations for texts that are appropriate for Year 6 children:
Thank you so much for your support. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
