Welcome to Year 6!

We are Yew class and we are the oldest children in the school.  We're excited to be taking on new learning challenges as well as responsibilities around the school.

Our teachers are Mrs Atkins and Mrs Bujniewicz.  We also lucky enough to have Mrs Pearson, Mrs Gear and Mr Bottomley to help us learn.

Our playtime is 10.30 until 10.45 and our lunch is 11.45 until 12.45 for the moment.

Our PE day is Friday - so we come to school in our PE kit that day.

We have music with Mr Adams from Castle school on a Wednesday.

Our Outdoor education on a Friday afternoon from Friday11th  March until the Easter break.

Remember to bring in wellies and waterproof trousers in a bag.  You might also want to bring some extra layers.

Each week we have spellings to practise on Spelling Shed. These will run from Friday to Friday and our test will be on a Friday.

We read every day - aiming for 20  minutes as a minimum.

Each week you will be set
