Merry Christmas from Year 5 and 6

Dear Parents/Carers

As this term comes to a close, we would like to thank you all for your continued support this year.  Your children have been amazing to teach.  They returned to school in September, faced with many challenges and new routines.  They have adapted brilliantly and are a credit to you all.

We wish you all a very merry Christmas and happy and healthy new year.

Stay safe 

Miss Sharman, Mrs Devlin, Mrs Witherall and Mr Hussein 

Autumn Term Week 6

Dear Parents/Carers

Thank you to all of you who made a donation to our Christmas Jumper day and to all the children who came to school looking very festive.

This week, children in Year 5 and 6 have taken part in some e-safety training with the two Johns.  It was very informative and the children were sensible throughout and asked some interesting questions.

Homework for the children for this week has been uploaded to Google Classroom.  Next week we will send home homework books for the children to work in after Christmas.

Have a lovely weekend.

Miss Sharman, Mrs Devlin and Mrs Witherall 

Autumn 2 - Week 5

Dear Parents/Carers

This week in Year 5/6, the children have been completing their end of term assessments.  They have all worked hard and tried their best.  Therefore, there will be no homework this week.

We are looking forward to meeting with some of you via Zoom over the next two weeks.  Fingers crossed, technology is on our side.  We are not expecting any problems, however, if any occur either our end or yours, there are still appointments available for 14th and 15th, so please feel free to rebook if needed.  Appointments are limited to 10 minutes.  We will need to stick to a strict time schedule in order to make sure parents are not kept waiting.  If, after your allotted time, you feel you would like more information, please contact us via the 5/6 email address and your child's teacher will call you at a convenient time.

Finally, don't forget Christmas Jumper day on Friday 11th.  Donations should be dropped into the bucket at the gate.  Thank you.

Have a lovely weekend.  

Miss Sharman, Mrs Devlin and Mrs Witherall
