Weekly Update - Friday 14th November 2025

Summary of this week: 

Dear Year 6 Parents and Carers,

We have had an incredibly busy week of mock SATs and a WWII immersion day.  

A huge well done to all the children for successfully navigating their first week of Year 6 assessments. A reminder, these papers and the scores they yield do not count, they are used as a reference point for how the children are getting on with their learning.

Our learning next week:

Maths: We will look at multiplying pairs of fractions and multiplying fractions by an integer. Towards the end of the week, we will calculate how to divide a fraction by an integer.

English: We will finish our writing on Escape, edit and ensure it is our best effort. We will then plan and write our own version – the invent stage of talk for writing.

 

Foundation:

In geography: We will look at changing populations and why people choose to move.

In RE: We will look at different celebrations and see which have a connection to the Christian faith by studying an excerpt from the Bible.

In Science: We will continue to study simple circuits and experiment with increasing and decreasing energy sources.

In DT: We will take our measurements so that we can draw our template of a waistcoat.

In computing: We will continue to look at coding using Python.

 Homework:

Homework resumes:

 

Maths: Arithmetic, set Monday due Wednesday.

English: SPAG, set Tuesday due Thursday.

Maths: Recap of learning, set Wednesday due Friday.

Reading: As frequent as can be and please ensure the reading log is updated once per week.

 Notices & Reminders:

 

Thank you for your support helping organise costumes and props for our evacuee day – the children all looked fantastic and we hope they enjoyed their history!

 

DT – Next week we are taking measurements and then drawing our waistcoats onto material. A last plea for any old bits of material that can be used for our lessons. Any old t-shirts, bedding, pillowcases, anything that can be turned into a waistcoat would be useful. We are aiming to make waistcoats for each child to wear, if we do not get enough material, we will instead design waistcoats for toys. The children will be tasked with measuring, scaling, cutting and sewing the material into a waistcoat.
