From the Year 6 Classroom

Dear Families, 

What a wonderful start to the school year it has been! The students have settled in beautifully, creating a calm and productive learning environment. They are eager to learn. 

In English, we have begun our novel study of, The Ghost in My Suitcase. The students are thoroughly enjoying this captivating story and engaging in thoughtful discussions about the characters and themes and the importance of discovering your family history. 

In Maths, we’ve been diving into the world of graphs, data collection, and interpretation. The students have enjoyed exploring different types of graphs and analysing data, building their skills in identifying patterns and drawing conclusions. 

In other news:  

Our Year 6 students have done an amazing job stepping into their leadership role as big buddies. The Preps have loved the time spent playing, and learning with their buddies, creating special connections. Well done, Year 6, for being such positive role models! 

Reminders 

Reading Diaries: Please ensure that your child is reading a book of their choice, we recommend 4-5 nights per week, for at least 20mins. Diaries are to be brought in on Friday to have reading signed off. Parents can you please sign off on your child’s reading before they bring it in.  

Uniform: Please ensure that your child is wearing the correct school uniform each day. The Yr 6 shirt, navy blue shorts/culottes, white socks (no logos) and black school shoes (sports shoes can be worn on PE specialist day).
