Year 6 have been looking at the topic of ‘self portraits’ in art. This week 6B were looking at the artist Julian Opie and were trying to create their own self portrait in the style of Julian Opie. I was very impressed with their paintings. Well done!
We have a very large amount of lost property in the Yr 6 corridor. Please can we ask that you remind children to check here for any lost PE Kits, Swimming kits, trainers, jumpers, coats, lunchboxes etc. Anything that has a name in it will be handed out this week.
Anything that is still remaining here by Friday will be sent to the main school lost property area.
As part of our final lesson in Guided Reading, 6J were tasked with creating an information powerpoint explaining all about parkour/free running which was the main theme in our recent book: Jump by Ann Evans.
The children really enjoyed using the laptops to research information and learned a lot about how to present information in an appealing fashion.
Mr J was very impressed with their hard work and attitude toward this lesson! Well done 6J!
Homework due by Wednesday 24th January.
As ever, please encourage children to complete their homework as this is good preparation for the transition to secondary school.
Thank you.
Please can we ask that Yr 6 children do not regularly arrive at school before 08:30am.
Children are unsupervised before 08:45am and there have been a number of children arriving at school well before this time.
Following a number of incidents this week, the children have been reminded that they are not to stand on the driveway for their own safety as this is used by cars right up until 08:30am. The areas for standing are clearly indicated by cones and we ask that children remain within these areas at all times.
Thank you.
Thank you so much to Miss Lockwood and Miss Whitehouse for 6B’s session at Beech’s Base on Wednesday. The children had the best time building trebuchets on the school field. This fit in with our topic of ‘angles’ in maths and looking at Tudor weapons.
Please find attached a letter for your attention.
Thank you for your support.
Mrs M
A quick reminder to class 6B to come to school dressed in forest school clothes on Wednesday, ready for Beech’s Base in the afternoon. Children will not be able to participate without wellies.
Many thanks,
Please can we remind children to bring in their own stationery. A lot of children have returned to school after the Christmas break without glue sticks, scissors, blue pens, rulers, green pens etc. All children’s stationery should be in a named pencil case.
Many thanks,
Year 6
