5/6 Christmas cards

The time is nearly upon us to start thinking about Christmas in school. Many children and adults ask us about cards. Due to the current situation, we have thought about how best to go about the giving and receiving of cards in school this year.

This year, please only send cards to children in your year group bubble (eg 6B, 6H & 6C or 5W & 5K).

From December 1st, children can bring cards and place them in the year group post box. This will be in their classroom. Cards can be dropped in any day up until 11th December.

On 11th December, the post box will close and no further cards can come into school. This will mean all cards will enter a period of quarantine. On Tuesday 15th December, all cards will be given out.

Please ask a member of the 5/6 team if you have any further questions.

Thank you for your support in helping to enjoy the joy of giving and receiving cards, whilst keeping everyone safe.

Outdoor PE next week

Next week, on Tuesday, we will be doing games outside for PE. We will be practicing our football skills so your child will need a PE kit with a tracksuit to keep them warm. They will also need a pair of trainers in their bag too. If they have football boots and shin pads they can wear those too however,  if they don’t have them don’t worry as the trainers will be enough. They must have a different footwear as the field will be muddy!!!

If your child has asthma, please check they have an inhaler in school and that it is in date.

On line reading!

We have just been looking at the new reading service we have signed up to. Your child can access it from the school website – it is the purple square at the top. When they click on it, they need to sign in using their accelerated reader log in and password. They can then choose what books they want to read.
