Dear Year 6 Parents and Carers,

We have had a busy week of revision.  The children have been applying themselves admirably to their studies and we are very impressed with their hard work.

Maths:  We will be completing the 2023 SATs paper in class as part of our revision. This will not be completed in test conditions and children are not working independently. We are using the papers are a teaching tool, not a test.

English: We are taking a pause with our writing and instead focusing heavily on reading practise and SPAG for our upcoming assessments.

Foundation: Reduced timetable due to bank holiday. We are spending our PSHE looking at tackling stress and how SATs are not the be all and end all.

Please continue to use the CGP revision tools. If your child has completed all of the books, please contact your teacher and we will find an additional task for them if you wish – this is only for children who have completed everything though!

Spellings – Puncture, steadily, mechanic, preference, protein, optician, currant.

SATs week – Communication has been sent out regarding SATs and the breakfast. We are opening the school early during SATs week. The school will be open at 8:15 and we will be providing a breakfast for the children.

SATs week – Please ensure children arrive at school during SATs week with a pencil case of resources ready for their assessments.

Class photo – Tuesday 7^th is class photo day, please make sure children are in school uniform and not wearing trainers or anything else unexpected.

The Howard – We are being visited by The Howard teachers on Thursday afternoon to talk about transition and secondary school.

PE kit Friday – Please can the children wear PE kit on Friday as they will be missing PE on Monday.
