Year 6 SATs Revision

Dear Parents/Carers,

A number of resources have now been uploaded onto Google Classroom to support your child with additional revision in preparation for SATs week, which is the week commencing 9th May 2022. These resources include support for Spelling, Reading and Maths.

Please encourage your child to access these resources from now until SATs week, as well as to continue to complete their homework and access Read Theory when outside of school each week. These resources are a valuable revision tool for your child during the Easter holidays, should they wish to complete some additional preparation.

Thank you for your continued co-operation.

The Year 6 Team.

Update 15.3.22

Dear Parents/Carers,

It was so lovely to see parents in our school building again yesterday for parents evening. We all know that face to face discussions are far more favourable to telephone calls and we plan to continue with this system moving forward.

Teachers have a very clear picture as to where your children are in their learning and the targets they need to work on in order to make the best possible progress. We know that parent input at home is key. We understand that work and family pressures can be a real obstacle in helping children at home. If nothing else, please find time to read to children and to let them read to you. The ability to read is the key to unlocking all other areas of learning and a huge priority in our school.

Covid is unfortunately not going away and despite the Government wanting us to ‘learn to live with Covid’ we are still suffering with significant staff absence due to infection and the rules we have to apply. Please help us by not allowing children to come into school if they are unwell with Covid symtoms. We are expecting an update on advice near the end of the month, as testing kits no longer remain free to acquire.

We are all excited about the rest of this year and firmly believe it can only get better with more and more events on offer for children and parents to enjoy. Fingers crossed!
