Year 6 Assessments (SATs): Monday 11^th May – Thursday 14^th May

A reminder that children in Year 6 (all the Eagles and some of the Falcons) are taking their SATs assessments next week.

 

What parents and carers can do to support their children:

 

• Make sure your child is well-rested and gets plenty of sleep each night.
• Your child needs to eat a good breakfast to help their concentration and enable them to do their best in the tests.

We are providing free breakfasts for all Year 6 children each day next week from 8.00am – 8.20am. We encourage all Year 6 children to come along and eat breakfast with their friends.

Online Safety

Last week I told you about an online safety session for parents and carers which is taking place this Wednesday, 6th May, 4.00pm – 4.45pm. Here is the link you’ll need to access the meeting:

This session will be recorded, so if you can’t make the live session, then you will be able to watch it back at a time that is convenient to you.

 

Falcons’ Class Assembly

Thank you to our Falcons’ class for their assembly last Thursday. Although I wasn’t able to attend, I have heard lots of good things about it! Thank you too to all the parents and carers who came to support their children.

 

Sports Day

Advance notice that we are hoping to hold this year’s Sports Day on Tuesday 2^nd June.

The junior classes will take part in the morning (Doves, Owls, Kestrels, Hawks, Falcons and Eagles). This will be on the playground and grass at the back of the school. The infant classes will take part in the afternoon (Robins, Woodpeckers, Kingfishers and Swallows). This will be on the playground and grass at the front of the school.
