Year 5/6 Blogpost 19.09.24

 Dear Parents,

Happy Friday. The children are now in full swing and have been working really hard this week. We had a brilliant time at the Imperial War Museum and the children learnt so much from the experience.

TABLE TENNIS

Well done to the children who took part in the Table Tennis tournament at Grove Wood this week.  Mr Harrington was very impressed with your behaviour and the way you performed on the day. A special well done to the girls for winning and progressing on to county finals.

  • 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 practise these at home by revising them from your spelling and times table notebook and by writing them down.
  • Times table practise - next week we are looking at 5’s. Please practise these at home by revising them from your spelling and times table notebook and by writing them down.
  • TTRS/Sumdog - lots of practise on these amazing programmes that complement what we learn at school. Please see your reading diaries for login details or message your class teacher using Dojo.

House Captains.

Well done to all of the children that have already submitted their presentations and speeches. Please see our newsletter for the results.


We hope that you have a wonderful weekend.

Mrs Hurley, Mr Greenfield and Miss Harvey
