ST JOHN'S SCHOOL VALUES:
Love; Friendship; Kindness; Honesty; Forgiveness
Welcome to Class 6!
Welcome to Year 6!
We are so excited to begin this new chapter together. Year 6 is a year full of opportunities to grow, explore and achieve. From new topics in the classroom to exciting projects and responsibilities around school, there will be plenty of chances to shine and show what you can do.
Of course, this year also brings challenges—most importantly, preparing for the SATs. Success will come through hard work, resilience, and determination, and we will be with you every step of the way. Remember, every effort you make adds up and helps you move closer to your goals.
Most of all, Year 6 is about making memories and leaving your mark. It’s your final year of primary school and together we will make it a year to remember. Let’s make it count!
In the classroom this year, there is:
Class Teacher – Mrs Peach
Teaching Assistants – Mr Whiteside and Mrs Hurley
PPA Teacher - Mr Whiteside
Group Support – Miss Johnston
Home Learning Expectations
In Class 6, you are expected to take more responsibility with your home learning . As in previous years, you are expected to read at least three times per week at home. However, in Year 6, we are giving pupils more freedom in how they choose to record their reading. There is a exercise book provided for you to record your reading in an imaginative way. This could be simply noting the date, book title, and pages/chapters read or if you prefer, you could be more creative by writing a short chapter review or sketching a scene from the story. You are also welcome to decorate your reading record to make it more personal.
We kindly ask grown ups at home to continue to encourage regular reading.
P.E Days
Our P.E days are:
Monday - Indoor
Thursday - Outdoor
You need to keep your indoor kit in school and bring your outdoor kit with you in a bag on a Thursday.
If you are attending an before or after school club you will need to bring in a separate kit to wear.
Thank you,
Mrs Peach
Class 6 Teacher
