Welcome To The Wild West

Howdy, pardners, and welcome to the Wild West, the rootingest, tootingest class in the whole of Year Six!

We have the most exciting year ahead of us! There will, of course, be a whole lot of hard work - all of which will lead up to the SATs tests in May - but we'll also have a lot of fun, including our residential trip to Newby Wiske, our Leaver's Production and our Leaver's Celebration (more news on that to come!).

This year, our timetable will run on a two-weekly basis - see below - so that we cover everything that our curriculum wants from us. In Science, we will be studying light, circuits and batteries; in History, we take a look at the impact of World War Two on those left at home, while in Computing, we study the work of those problem-solvers at Bletchley Park; our Geography topic looks at population increases and decreases; in DT, we design and make a waistcoat (for a furry and cuddly friend) and in Art we create photo montages, using our own photography skills. There's a lot to get through before Craft Week and the Christmas Fayre in December, but we will do our very best to fit everything in!

While we're here, just a few reminders:

• PE is timetabled for a Thursday, with Mr Howell. Children should come to school in their PE Kit
• All children should bring to school a permission slip (sent home today) if they wish to walk home or bring a phone into school
• Should you need to contact me, I will be on the playground after school every day except Thursday - I'm also contactable on Classdojo, or failing that via the office. I'm always happy to answer any questions or help in any way!
• Meet the Teacher meetings are taking place on Wednesday 10th September at 3.30

Here's to a fabulous Autumn Term and a brilliant Year 6,

See you soon, Cowboys!
