Hello Year 6 and your parents/carers!

Myself (Mrs Hamilton) and Mrs Whittaker on a Monday are your teachers this year with Miss Kelsall as our Teaching and Learning Assistant – together we will be working as a team to make this a fun and successful year for all! Our main priority is to look after you all, support you all in your learning and prepare you for your next journey to High school.

We will be adding all the amazing learning to this page over each half term so please keep checking!

For parents/carers, we operate an open door policy and we are available at the end of the day, alternatively please get in touch by phoning the office or message on Class Dojo and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Lets make 2025-2026 a brilliant year!

Many thanks

General information:

Please be aware that , Mrs Hamilton works Tuesday to Friday and Mrs Whittaker works Monday. Miss Kelsall will be with us all week.

Physical Education: P.E lessons will be games on a Friday.

Homework: Your child will receive maths, English, Spelling, R.E value thoughts and Creative Curriculum homework on a home learning log sheet that will be handed out on a Friday. This is to be completed at home in anyway you can and then when completed the home learning book is to be brought in or pictures/videos are to uploaded on to the child’s profile on Class Dojo. Golden time will be given to those children who complete homework or it is a time for children to complete their homework.

Behaviour: Children are to follow the 3 simple rules of READY, RESPECTFUL and SAFE. If your child displays these consistently they will receive a recognition award. If 3 or more are given in one week, their names are mentioned in assembly and they will receive a raffle ticket to be entered in to a grand prize at the end of the term. The more recognition, the more tickets, the more chance they have of winning! Our ‘Behaviour Curriculum’ shows clearly what our expectations are with regards to behaviour and our ‘Graduate Response to Behaviour’ outlines the sanctions if these are not followed.

Our Gospel value for this half term is: KINDNESS

What is kindness?

How can we show kindness in our day to day lives? We will be looking in to this, this half term.

MORE ART

We have started our new topic on still life drawing block. We used fruit and veg as our stimulus and used different media to draw them. We looked at the vocabulary of size: proportion, ratio, scale and figurative. We all worked very hard to get in the lines, form and textures in our drawings.

ART

Just look at our art work! We are very proud of them. We looked at the style of Julian Opie and how he draws portraits then we used this as inspiration for our own work. The results are amazing!
