Year 6
Please use the links below to practice the signs at home!
In Year 6, we have all created wonderful homework pieces of artwork and models as part of our Geography 'Waste' topic to reuse pieces of rubbish that could become waste in the UK.

Dear Parents, Carers and Year 6 children,
We would like to warmly welcome you to our Year 6 team. Our team includes Miss Kiernan and Miss Lloyd-Thomas, who are the two class teachers. Mrs Mahon and Mrs Dwyer will assist in supporting the children in all areas of their learning while Mrs Kevane will continue to teach French, Music and Computing. Year 6 is an exciting and challenging year and we are very enthusiastic about the year ahead. It may be useful to have some information regarding routine, expectations and home learning.
We will be updating the website on a regular basis and at times support with homework may be posted on here as well. We will always fully explain the expectations of any homework to the children and they can always come back and ask for support in any areas that they may find more challenging.
PE
The children will be asked to wear their PE kit every Thursday and Friday to school to be ready for their PE lessons. There will be no need for PE kits to come into school.
Reading
Reading is a very important part of your child’s development and is a key indicator of success later in life. In Year Six the expectations are very high and all children should be reading every day for at least 20 to 30 minutes at home. It is important that children develop their comprehension skills as well as their ability to decode words and read fluently. Therefore it is important to ask your child questions about their reading to confirm their understanding of a text. Your child should be completing detailed entries in their reading record nightly to reflect what they have read and understood that day. This will further help them to prepare for the Key Stage 2 National Reading Test in May 2024.
Homework
The children will be set homework three times a week and this is designed to support and develop their learning in school. It essential that all homework is completed to a high standard and is handed in on time.
English homework: this is set on Monday and is due on Wednesday. English homework consists of a reading comprehension activity and a grammar, punctuation and spelling activity.
Maths homework: this is set on Wednesday and is due on Friday. Maths homework consists of a online MyMaths activities and at times there may be a supporting task.
Weekend homework: this is set on Friday and is due in on Monday. Weekend homework usually consists of a reading activity or a research task related to the children's History, Geography, Science or wider learning.
School Clubs
Monday: Choir Club.
Wednesday: Netball & Football Club.
Thursday: Basketball Club.
Maths Key Facts
It is very important that children develop a quick recall of their key mathematical facts in order to carry out a range of calculations quickly and accurately. All children in Year 6 should be able to fluently recall their multiplication facts (1-12) and the related division facts with speed. Please ensure these are practised regularly. If your child loses this sheet, please do not hesitate to ask us for a new copy!
