Christmas Craft Afternoon
As you will have already seen, we would like to invite you to a Christmas craft event on Tuesday 17th December from 1.30pm. During the afternoon, we will be creating a Christmas gift and the children will sing a Christmas song too. Due to space restrictions, we have to limit this to two adults per child.
Please ensure that you have returned the slip that your child brought home if you intend to come. Don't forget to bring a mug for you and your child - there will be hot chocolate!
End of the School Day
If you give your Year 5/6 child to leave school unaccompanied at the end of the day, please ensure that you have completed the consent form.
Y6 SATs Information & helping at home
The statutory key stage 2 tests are timetabled from Monday 12 May to Thursday 15 May 2025. In Year 6, we are often asked how to support children at home to prepare for SATs. Helpful websites and the statutory spelling lists can found here.
In particular, this is a good site for helping with Maths at home - White Rose Maths - as it aligns with the methods taught in school so it will be familiar to your child.
ParentPay
If you have not yet set up a ParentPay account, please make sure that you do so. All of our ticketed events (eg Leavers' assembly) will be distributed using this system and all payments & consents for trips will be made using ParentPay. Without a ParentPay account, you will not be able to do any of these things. If you have lost the letter that we sent out, please speak to the office.
