Bikeability Year 6

Dear Parents/ Guardians,

Next week, Monday 15th – Thursday 18th June, Mrs Arthurs’ class will have Bikeability.

Children will not need to bring their own bikes or helmets as road-worthy bicycles are provided from Telford and Wrekin. The children do not need to be confident cyclists as this will be developed over the week. The sessions are one hour long and will run throughout the school day on Monday. From the second day, children who are able to ride a bike, will be allowed to complete level 2 – riding on roads. There will be trained instructors monitoring the children and their safety and pupils will learn about road safety, signalling and how to ride confidently outside. The children do not need to wear PE kit (apart from Tuesday) which is our usual PE day.

Mrs Stack’s class will complete this in two weeks.

Kind regards,
The Year 6 Team

Leavers’ Hoodies

Good afternoon,

Year 6 will be able to wear their leavers’ hoodies rather than their school jumper of fleece from Monday 29th June. They will still need to wear the rest of their usual school uniform.

Kind regards,
Year 6 Team

Year 6 Colour Run

Year 6 had a blast with the rest of the school on our colour run. There was lots of multi-coloured hair and clothing by the end.

Healthy Lifestyles Week

Today we had our gymnastics lesson and also used the inflatables during lunch time.

Healthy Lifestyles Week

Year 6 have had a great morning trying out some kickboxing and hula hooping. It has been fantastic to see such smiley faces this morning.

Loudmouth Production: Screen Time

Years 5 and 6 took part in watching a drama performance called ‘Screen Time’ this morning. They were shown how to use smart phones responsibly and given valuable information about what data is and how it used when online. The performance explained the impact of data on algorithms and then began to explore more sensitive topics such as dis- and misinformation and how to deal with unkind comments from others when online. The performance and workshops expressed the importance of sharing any worries with trusted adults and explained the reason behind age restrictions on certain apps.

Disinformation: is false, inaccurate, or misleading information that is deliberately created and spread with the intention to deceive.
Misinformation: Misinformation is false, inaccurate, or misleading information that is spread by mistake, without the intent to deceive or cause harm.

Charles Darwin Fact Files

Year 6 have thoroughly enjoyed creating fact files about Charles Darwin for our topic about evolution. They have independently researched and written about his life and important discoveries. Year 6 took great pride in their presentation to create some fantastic written pieces.

Year 6 Quiz Day

Year 6 have had an amazing day of quizzing! We have played SPaG and maths quizzes and worked in teams to answer SATs style questions. Year 6 have worked so hard this year and we are very proud of all their hard work. Have a restful weekend Year 6 :)

Welcome Back Year 6

We hope you and your family enjoyed a lovely Easter break. Year 6 have another busy half term ahead of us with lots of exciting activities planned as well as our SATs the week commencing 11th May.

PE lessons will remain on the same days: Tuesdays (gymnastics indoors) and Fridays (tennis outdoors) during Summer 1. Please remember to send your child with a water bottle every day and ensure that children are wearing correct uniform.

See you back in class on Monday 13th April!

Newdale’s Got Talent in Year 6

On Wednesday 11th March, year 6 will have the opportunity to audition (if they would like to) for Newdale’s Got Talent. We would like the children to come prepared with their act already finalised so that they can perform for their peers. The children will then vote for the act that they would like to put forward into the quarter finals.

Please note, the acts need to be able to be performed on the stage in the school hall for the final performance. The children will need to bring in any accessories/ equipment that they require (within reason). Please speak to class teachers if unsure.

Due to auditions, the nature walk has been postponed. We will re-schedule this for later in the term.

Kind regards,

Year 6 Team
