Our class timetable will be added in September.

Year 6 Yearly Overview

Please note:

PE Kits

PE Days will be confirmed in September.

Please dress your child in their PE kits on both of these days; they do not need to change into their uniform after.  

Water Bottles

Please make sure you child brings in a clearly labelled water bottled each day that has already been filled with water. 

Home Learning

In Year 6, home learning is set online via SATsCompanion. Each child has their own login and work set can be found under the "Tasks" tab. 

The "Practise" tab provides additional activities that children can complete, should they need more work on something or as revision activities. 

Children are also expected to complete 30 minutes on Times Table Rock Stars each week. Again, each child has their own login.

Reminders of logins can be obtained by emailing your child's class teacher. 

Snacks 

All children are provided with a healthy snack (fruit or vegetables) from school at morning break.

Reading

Research suggests that children ages 10-11 should read for 30 minutes per day. Whilst we understand this is not always possible, reading is hugely important to children's academic, social and emotional health. 

Children should read from a variety of genres and should discuss and answer questions about their reading.

Looking for reading inspiration? Here are 100 recommended reads for 10-11 year olds:

Times tables

The Year 6 Maths curriculum is engaging and rigorous, and relies on quick and accurate maths fact recall. Each child has a Times Table Rock Stars account, which should be used to build fluency in times tables (up to 12x12) and corresponding division facts. 

We also have Maths Fluency lessons in school, which further support children's automaticity in these facts. 

Rights Respecting School

We are a Rights Respecting School and we believe every child, young person and the school community should learn about children's rights, putting them into practise every day. We hope that this will have a positive impact on children's lives by making:

- Children healthier and happier

- Children feel safe

- Children have better relationships

-Children become active and involved in school life and the wider world
