Dear Mrs McDevitt and Year 6,

I am really hoping you will be able to help me?

Since we returned to school a few weeks ago I have noticed there are a few things that need improving around school but I don’t really know where to start!

Last week I had a chat with your class about applying for the roles of Head Boy and Head Girl as well as School Council and the responsibilities involved… I’m hoping they are ready and willing to apply as I could really do with their help and I’m in desperate need of some fresh ideas J.

I look forward to reading through the applications and along with yourself, Mr Jordan and Mrs Rynott, can’t wait to pick our ‘dream team’ of proactive, thoughtful and fun to be around candidates.

Good luck everybody – remember you all have amazing qualities to offer so make your application stand out!

Regards,

Helena Carey

Remember to keep practising your maths work too by using the TimesTables Rockstars page and trying out some of the Oak Academy maths lessons. I will re-post the link.

Half-term

As it is half-term this week, I won't set any activities for you to complete!

Have a lovely week 

Please complete the reading questions and writing activities by Friday and email them into school  On Friday, I will put up the new chapters to read.

If you would like to complete some Maths questions, I recommend looking at the Oak Academy Gov lessons on the links below; they cover a variety of maths topics for Year 6.

I hope you have enjoyed the chapters so far! I loved meeting the characters, Tom, Josie, Michael and Ahmet! I found it hard to work out the narrators name? I thought it was lovely how he thought about the feelings of the new boy, Ahmet, and winked at him! Jennie doesn't sound too kind though! And what does seclusion mean? Where do you think that Ahmet goes? 

I've attached the quiz and the writing activities- have a go at them and email pictures or documents of your work to me by Friday :) 

On Friday, I will put up the new chapters for you to read.

Happy reading & writing.

If you don't have your book, it may be delivered this weekend. If it isn't, please collect from the school office on Monday. Any problems with this, let the office know on Monday. 

I will be reading the same chapters as you! I'm looking forward to finding out, who this boy is, does he have friends, why is he at the back of the class? 

Happy reading!
