Welcome to Year 6!
This year, Year 6 will be taught by: Miss Nixon, Miss Penrose and Mrs Youd.
We hope you find the information below useful. Thank you for your support.
Bags, Books and Bottles
All pupils should bring their book bag containing their homework book and reading book to school every day. These have been provided by St.Peters. Pupils can also bring their own appropriate water bottle with them. If they do not, they can use a school water bottle.
P.E
P.E in Year 6 is on a Wednesday afternoon.
P.E kits should be brought into school at the start of each half term. This should consist of a white t-shirt, black shorts and pumps. Black joggers and hoodies can be provided for colder weather.
Kits can be taken home at the end of each half term to be washed. We kindly ask that P.E kits are left at school in the meantime.
Homework
It is essential in Year 6 that homework is completed on time and to a high standard. Doing so will help your child with their SATs preparation and eventual transition to high school.
Spellings are Pinged out every Monday morning and we expect the children to practise this list daily at home for 10 minutes. They will be tested on the words the following Monday.
Reading books are sent home every day for your child to read at home. In Year 6, we expect that children are reading for at least 10 minutes every night.
All children have log-ins for Times Tables Rockstars and they are expected to log on and practise daily. In Year 6, we expect that children practise their times tables for at least 10 minutes every night.
They also have log-ins for Maths.co.uk, Spag.com and Reading Plus for extra homework and SATs revision. All log-ins have been stuck inside their homework books.
Please sign your child's homework book daily when they have read to you, practised their spellings and been on Times Tables Rockstars. There is a sheet that is stuck in every week with space for you to do this.
Reading for Pleasure
The children have access to our class library where they can borrow any book they choose and take it home.
There is no formal requirement to read this book each night as we want your child to read this book for enjoyment.
We kindly ask that these books are returned when they have been read for others to enjoy. If your child loses a book, they will not be allowed to take out another.
