Year 6 Teachers

Mrs Arnold

Year 1 Teacher

Timings for our day

The year 6 day begins at 8.35 so it is important that the children are lined up ready for an adult to collect them every morning.

On a Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday the school day finishes at 4.30.

On a Thursday and Friday the school day finishes at 3.20.

If you have any concerns with this please do let a member of staff know and we can help to resolve it.

Homework

Last week, year 6 were sent home with a folder full of homework books. Each week they will be set one piece each of grammar, reading and maths. They have from Monday to Monday to complete this. If they are finding it tricky or just need to ask a question then it is important that they do that before Monday so that an adult can assist them. If completing the work at home is not working then we are happy for them to complete it at lunchtime with one of us.

Extended day

This half term has seen the beginning of the year 6 extended day. The children have been immersed into Harry Potter, science experiments and historical drama. It has been lovely to see the children embrace this extra challenge while also deepening their learning through practical activities. Thank you all for the support.

 

 

Welcome Back!!!

Welcome back to the new school year. It is lovely to see the children in their navy jumpers and looking very smart. They have settled well into year 6. This year the children are lucky enough to have two teachers. Mrs Heffernan will be in every day and Mrs Arnold will be in Monday to Wednesday.

A few reminders:

  • Our school day starts at 8.35
  • Our PE day is Monday
  • Times table wheels to be completed every day
  • Reading should be completed and signed by an adult at least 4 times a week.
  • Reading books will be changed every Thursday.

We have a lot of exciting things happening this year including Aylmerton, if you have any questions or queries please feel free to catch myself or Mrs Arnold before or after school.
