Year 5/6 Blogpost Friday 6th February '26

Dear Parents,

We hope you have had a lovely week. It certainly has been a busy one here in Year 5 and 6. The children have successfully completed their SATs papers - each and every one of them has made so much progress and we are so proud of their efforts! With 9 school weeks to go until the 'real thing', our Year 6 children are definitely confident and nearly ready - keep working hard to achieve your goals!

We have had a lovely day today and the children gained so much knowledge about the Anglo-Saxons. Photos to come next week...

NO HOMEWORK HAS BEEN SET THIS WEEK. ENJOY YOUR REST!

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. Please make sure this comes into school every day.

  • 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 wonderful weekend,

Mrs. Hurley, Mr. Greenfield and Miss Harvey
