 Cynefin

Any further details about this term’s topic:

Topic

Our topic is called ‘Cynefin’ and will last for the whole term. The focus is on Wales and Europe where the children have already started researching and discussing their areas of interest for possible learning experiences. This topic is very flexible in the way we will plan the lessons as we will base our planning on what the children’s ideas – of course this will be guided by the teacher.

Homework

Takeaway homework sheets can be found in the orange homework book and will be taken home on the weekend and brought back in on the following Tuesday ready for marking. The children can choose one task per weekend where there is a variety of activities available. These tasks can be completed in the homework book or shared via the Google classroom stream. Every other weekend, Maths homework will be sent out to consolidate the learning that’s taken place in the weekly maths lessons.

PE

Our PE lessons will take place on a Wednesday where outdoor kit will be needed. Please ensure the children have warm clothes and plenty to drink. A white or school PE t-shirt, blue or black joggers/shorts and trainers will be needed. If your child is asthmatic and needs an inhaler for PE please make sure they have them in school with them.

Young Voices

On the 13th January, Y5/6 will be going to Birmingham and taking part in Young Voices. This is an event the school have been attending for the past 7 years. It’s a fantastic opportunity to be in a choir with other children from around the country and sing with a live band and dancers. A letter has already been sent home regarding the details, please return these asap so we can place the t-shirt order. Any problems please contact us.
