Year 6

Mr Barham, Mr Wilson & Mrs Hendy

 

Monday 11th November - Friday 15th November

 

  • Swimming - The last Yr 6 swimming sessions will be on 20th November. As the children missed several lessons we have booked three extra sessions, just for those children who cannot swim 25 meters, on June 9th, 16th and 23rd.

 

  • The school nurses will be in on Tuesday to do the Yr 6 Height & Weight checks. For information see Letters, below. There is an opt out form attached to the parent letter if you do not want your child to take part.

 

  • Odd Socks Day this Tuesday marks the start of Anti-Bullying Week. It is supported by cBeebies presenter and Anti Bullying Alliance patron Andy Day and his band 'Andy and the Odd Socks'. We are inviting the children to wear odd socks to school on Tuesday. We would love them to have a go at the Kindness Bingo too, and bring it in to share with their teacher.

 

 

DEADLINES - DEADLINES - DEADLINES!

 

  • Christmas Lunch orders - The kitchen need numbers in plenty of time to order supplies, so please go onto Arbor and book a meal for your child by Friday 29th November.

 

  • Christmas Cards - Order forms were sent home in bookbags on Thursday. Order by midday on Monday 18th November. Please note that the company is unable to return the original artwork.
