Croeso i Blwyddyn 6

Hello and welcome to the year 6 class pages.

Here, we will keep you updated with homework, trips and overviews of the children's learning in year 6.

Homework

Year 6 pupils will be given homework on a Friday each week.  We vary the type of homework on a 3 weekly rotation:

Week 2-Creative

Week 3-Numeracy

Week 4-Reading

Week 5-Creative

Week 6-Numeracy

Week 7-Reading

etc

We run a homework club in 6KT/VF on a Monday lunchtime to ensure all children have an opportunity to complete the tasks.

Daily Mile

We will be completing a daily mile so please ensure pupils have sensible shoes that they can run in for this activity.  Please also ensure that your child has a refillable drinks bottle in school too.

PE

PE lessons for our class this year will be on a Wednesday afternoon and children are required to bring in their PE kit for this lesson.  They may bring it in and leave it on their peg for the half term if this is easier.

Swimming

Swimming for our class is in week 5 and 6 this term.

The children will swim daily from 13:00-13:30 from Monday 30th September to 11th October.

AUTUMN TOPIC

'The Home Front'

This term, we will be looking at the home front during WW2.  We will begin by looking at the main events and people of the war and then focus on how the home front managed and supported the military during this time.

The children will hot-seat Sir Winston Churchill and visit his War Rooms in London.

At the end of term, the children will host a VE party.  You are invited to come and celebrate with rationing party food, dancing and more.  Date TBC.

Request for 'Make Do and Mend':

The pupils will make bunting for the VE day party so if anyone has any bits of material or outgrown unwanted clothes we could cut up that would be fantastic.

The pupils will also be making a model of a 1940s style Llanishen village so if you have any boxes they could use please send them into school.

Diolch!
