Welcome to the first week of this half term. I hope you all had a restful half term and have fully recovered from PGL!
This week's timetable can be accessed HERE. PLEASE CHECK THIS EVERY DAY!
You will need to wear your PE kit on MONDAY and TUESDAY this week as we have PE in school. You will need to wear your uniform on all the other days. Please note the change from a Wednesday to Tuesday for PE for this half term.
On TUESDAY after school, it is the PTA Halloween Disco. Details about this will be on the newsletter/PTA Facebook page.
On WEDNESDAY, you have individual photos so please come to school looking your smartest!
On FRIDAY, it is shared learning where your grown ups are invited in so you can share your learning from last half term. If you have a sibling in school, it starts at 2.30pm but if you don't, then it is 2.45pm.
DON'T FORGET TO BRING IN YOUR HALF TERM RETRIEVAL HOMEWORK ON FRIDAY 6TH NOVEMBER OR HAND IT IN ON GOOGLE CLASSROOM.
Remember, you MUST bring a warm waterproof coat to school EVERY DAY as you will be expected to go out at playtimes even if it is raining and the weather is also unpredictable.
The learning behaviour this week is 'Try New Things' and our value this half term is 'Compassion'. Our words this week are: 'longitude' and 'latitudes'.
This week's homework is:
- Maths - Multiples and Factors
- Writing - use the picture stimulus to write 5 sentences using the different sentence types learnt in class: compound, complex (middle), verb complex and subordinating complex. If you are unsure, please look at this video on the website. All the details are on Google Classroom. You can submit your writing on Google Docs or handwrite it in your homework book.
- Learn the first column of the Y5/6 or Y3/4 Common Exception Words. The ones you need to learn have been highlighted on the list in the front of your homework book. You will be tested on the first column this week in class. Do not forget to practise your personal spellings.
- Use TTRockstars to practise your times tables - you MUST know these!! If you don't, you need to go on here EVERY DAY.
- Read for Pleasure at least FIVE times this week and record this in your diary for our Reading Giants challenge. Ask a grown up to sign your book on Friday's section.
Please complete your homework and bring into school on FRIDAY 13th NOVEMBER 2026.
