Year 5/6 Blogpost 16.05.25

 Dear Parents/Carers,

What a lovely, sunny week we have had again this week. Please could we ask that you make sure children wear hats and sun cream when the weather is warmer and drink bottles are brought in each day.


SATs week
This week, in Year 6, it has been an incredibly busy but very rewarding one!
The hard work and perseverance that you have all demonstrated throughout the year, and particularly during the SATS week, is to be commended.
You have all shown such maturity and enthusiasm, and we know you will go on to do great things. We are so proud of each and every one of you!

Mrs Witherall and I would also like to thank our amazing staff that have helped us to make this SATs week run smoothly – as it takes a lot of work and preparation.

Year 6 – enjoy your weekend and then your trip to the Isle of Wight because you have earned it!

Love from Mrs Hurley and Mrs Witherall

Please also ensure that your child is regularly:

  • Reading: Remember 15-20 minutes reading to an adult every day is the optimum and should be continuing into Year 6. Please also encourage your child to read by themselves and then discuss the text afterwards, sharing opinions, their favourite part or questioning what happened so as to ensure that your child is understanding the text as well as reading it. All children have a Reading record to take home.
  • Spelling words - please practice these at home by revising them from your spelling and times table notebook and by writing them down. This week we are up to:
  • Spelling Rule 62 - Word list – years 5 and 6 - random selection
  • TTRS/Sumdog - lots of practice on these amazing programmes that complement what we learn at school. Please see your reading diaries for login details.


We hope that you have a weekend!


Mrs Hurley, Mr Greenfield and Mrs Witherall
