The Year Six Team 

Mr Johns (from Pacesetters) teaches PE on a Wednesday.

Madame Hickman teaches French on a Thursday.

Communication with the Team

• Always maintain 2m social distancing when talking to members of staff.
• Face masks must be worn if entering the classroom.
• Morning communications when children arrive must be brief (teachers are busy starting lessons). If needed, hand over a written note to provide more detail and we can phone you during the day.
• Teachers are usually available at the end of each day for a short chat if needed.
• Alternatively send an email to and this will be forwarded to the Mrs Capstick.

Equipment

• Water bottle (named)
• PE kit stays in school every day
• Pencil case
• Packed lunch bag
• Small bag

Due to very small cloakrooms it is helpful if children only bring a small bag into school.  To support the transition to secondary school we encourage Year 6 to take responsibility for ensuring they have all the resources needed each day.  Checking their school bags daily is a good habit to get into.

Homework

Please refer to the table below for the homework this term.

Reading - It is expected that your child reads at home daily for at least 10 minutes with an adult.  Due to COVID-19 restrictions, children are able to change their reading books in school once a week.  Re-reading a book several times, becoming familiar with tricky words in a book and asking questions to develop reading comprehension skills can be useful.
