Week beginning 6th July 2009

Hi everyone,

We really can't believe that we are nearly at the end of another very busy and eventful school year! Our Year 6 children are looking forward to moving on to the High School and we are looking forward to our Year 5's becoming Year 6's and our Year 4's moving up to Year 5.

last week saw a spectacular Sports Day!! Well done to the red team! All children tried so hard and it was great to see every child participating in all of the activities!! Well done everyone.

Our end of year production is starting to take shape now. Hopefully your child will have told you if they need a costume, if not you can pop in and see one of the Year 5/6 team and we will be happy to point you in the right direction.
We will be spending a lot of the week practicing for the production.There will be no homework this week as we feel the time is needed to get costumes ready and learn song lyrics.
You should have received your tickets on Friday. As usual we cannot allow entrance without a ticket due to health and safety regulations.

On Thursday will be our school trip to Chester Zoo. We will be leaving school at approximately 9.15 and hopefully be back by 3.45pm traffic depending. We hope that the weather will be kind to us but just on case we would recommend taking a waterproof coat or umbrella. All children will need a packed lunch and a few drinks as we are out for the whole day.
When we return to school please collect your child from the playground as usual, it is very difficult to keep track of where the children are if parents collect them from the coaches.
Thank you to all those parents who have offered to help out, we really appreciate it.

This week we will spend our time in class preparing for next year. We will be completing a piece of writing to pass up to the next teacher. We will also be completing some teacher and self assessments in maths and science to pass on to the next teacher.

That brings us to end of this weeks very short blog, although it is short we have lots to fit in, so much to do so little time!
Have a great week.
Year 5/6 Team.
