Year 6 

Dear Year 6 parents and carers, 

It is wonderful to welcome your children into their final year here at St Anthony's. I am sure they will be wonderful ambassadors for our school and kind, thoughtful friends to their Reception buddies. We work hard in the 'top' class but have fun too. 

Please note the following: 

Homework

Homework is a vital part of year 6 as it allows the children to practise and consolidate the skills learned in Maths and English. Homework will be given to the children each Monday and is to be back in school, signed by an adult,  the following Friday. 

We will mark the work in their books in class together. Booster classes are available for every child, at dinnertime with a teacher, if there is something they have found tricky. Please encourage your child to ask for one if needed before homework is handed in. 

Spellings will be given weekly on Wednesday and there will be a weekly spelling test the following Wednesday.  The spelling rules are  from the National Curriculum and Statutory year 5/6 spelling list. 

Home reading books have been given to all children. They must be in school everyday and the children change them once a week on a given day. Please make sure reading records are signed and returned to school each week. Reading with your child daily is vital, in order to ensure they continue to develop their inference and understanding.

PE

Our PE days are now Tuesday and Friday. Please make sure PE kits have all the clothing as well as pumps and trainers necessary. 

 PE kit and footwear should be in school at all times.

Indoor kit: white t-shirt, blue shorts, socks and black pumps.

Outdoor kit: a plain blue tracksuit, white t-shirt, socks and trainers.

Should you have any further questions or queries please do not hesitate to see us or speak with the office.

Thank you for your support; it is as always appreciated.

The Year 6 Team
