Welcome to Year 6
9 weeks until the Year 6 Residential!
The Year 6 teachers are Miss Poyner and Miss Jeavons. They are supported by Miss Taylor, Mrs Bell and Mr Tierney.
We are based in the Year 6 mobile classroom. In the mornings, Year 6 children usually wait on the bottom playground until the bell sounds and then walk sensibly in through the main mobile entrance ready to hang up your coat and bag.
In order to maximise the space in our middle area, we need your support. We are asking that you only bring a coat and a drawstring bag to put your things in (lunch box, water bottle, reading book and record).
Rucksacks are too big and bulky for this area so we do not allow you to bring one in Year 6. You also need to bring a drink of water in with you for throughout the day.
PE is on a Friday and you will need to come to school in your kit on that day.
Your homework will be to complete 45 minutes on TTRockstars (it is best to do this in small chunks throughout the week) and read at least 3 times a week. On Friday mornings we will check that you have been practising your timestables for the correct amount of time and on a Monday we will check that your reading journal has been signed 3 times by an adult.
In Year 6, there will be opportunities for you to watch films, for example Goodnight Mister Tom and Matilda, which have a PG certificate so just let your parents know. If they have any questions or concerns they can email us.
We expect you to work hard and behave well. We try to plan interesting lessons and opportunities for your last year with us so you need to attend well, try your best and always be respectful to others.
We think that covers it all, but if you have any questions for us you can email us at year6@comberton.worcs.sch.uk and we’ll try our best to answer them.
