Class 14
Welcome to Class 14. Here is all of the information you need to know for Year 6!
PE - PE is every Thursday and Friday; please make sure your child comes into school on these days in weather appropriate kit and that it is named.
Spellings- Spellings are put on Spelling Shed each Friday and tested the following Friday.
Year 6 will now be coming into school on Thursdays and Fridays in their PE kit. This adjustment aims to reduce the time spent changing into and out of PE attire and maximize the valuable time the children have in PE lessons. PE kits can now remain at home, unless needed for any club/sporting event.
