You can pick and choose which rounds you would like to do:
Signature Round- Is a tried and tested recipe that you enjoy doing.

Half Term Fun!

Well Year 6 - we made it! Whether you have been in school or working from home you have all worked extremely hard and we are very proud of you. Attached below is the half term activity bingo sheet for you to try and complete as many activities as possible over the next week. Send it in to your teacher at the start of the new term and we will send out a certificate to you. Also attached is the family activity: Wind your Way to Wembley 2021. If you wish

- Don't join too early - if you are the first person on the meet then please leave until your teacher arrives

- Mute yourself before you enter, but you can have your camera turned on

- Do not change your background. Blurring your background is fine though.

- Your teacher can mute you, but you must un-mute yourself to speak, but only when asked to! I cannot unmute your microphone for you

- Do not use the Live Chat typing box to message in or each other. Only use this to tell your teacher that your microphone isn't working

- No screenshots of the class Live Check-in please - your friends might not have permission.

- No face-pulling / gestures / showing objects on camera / behaviour you wouldn't show in school!

 

You will be removed from the Live Check-in if you do not follow any of the rules, but you can re-join providing you stick to them. Remember, we don't have long to "meet", so please follow the rules and we'll have a great time catching up every morning.

Welcome to Year 6!

It's so lovely to have all the children back in school and they have settled in really well and seem eager to get on with their learning! 

 

Children must have a reading book in school every day, whether this is one borrowed from class or brought in from home. (Books that are borrowed from school will be quarantined for 48 hours before being returned to shelves.)

Homework diaries must be in school every day and children will be expected to fill them in as and when homework is given out and ensure that homework is handed in on the day that it is due.

 

PE days:

6C and 6G - Monday and Friday

6P - Tuesday and Friday

Children should come into school dressed in their PE kits on these days.
