Welcome to Year 6

Y6 SATs

Dear Parents and Carers,

 

We would like to remind you that Year 6 SATs week will take place next week. This is an important time for the children, and we are incredibly proud of the hard work and dedication they have shown throughout the year.

Our aim is to ensure that all children feel confident, calm, and well-prepared so they can do their very best.

Your support makes a huge difference. Here are some simple but effective ways to help your child feel ready:

 

  1. Prioritise a Good Night’s Sleep
  • Aim for an early bedtime each night
  • Ensure your child gets plenty of rest so they feel refreshed and focused
  • Try to keep a consistent bedtime routine

 

  1. A Healthy Start to the Day
  • Provide a nutritious breakfast each morning
  • Children are welcome (and encouraged) to attend our Breakfast Club, which will be available during SATs week

 

  1. Positive Encouragement
  • Remind your child that these tests do not define them
  • Use positive affirmations, such as:
    • “Just try your best – that is enough”
    • “You have worked hard and you are ready”
  • Keep conversations calm and reassuring

 

  1. Be Prepared
  • Ensure your child arrives at school on time each day
  • Make sure they have had breakfast and are ready to begin promptly

 

  1. Manage Worries
  • Encourage your child to talk about any worries
  • Reassure them that feeling a little nervous is normal
  • Let them know that staff are here to support them every step of the way

We are incredibly proud of our Year 6 pupils. SATs week is simply an opportunity for them to show what they have learned. Our focus is on ensuring the children feel supported, confident, and positive.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Thank you for your continued support.

Welcome to Year 6! Here you will find all the information you need, including PE days, your homework and pictures of our work.

For Summer 1, P.E will be on a Tuesday (gymnastics) and Friday (tennis with Crossbar).

Homework and Spellings will be issued each Friday morning, we would very much appreciate your support with this at home. By Year 6, please ensure your child is writing their own comments in their reading diaries.

Homework will include a Maths/English task each week, alongside 5 reads per week. We also encourage the children to access TTRS when possible.

We are really looking forward to all the exciting lessons and activities we have planned for Summer: workshops from Shrewsbury Museum relating to our science and history topics, Bikeability, Crucial Crew and a performance by Loudmouth about staying safe online.
