End of Year School Production

For our end of year production, Year 6 will be performing 'The Amazing Adventures of Superstan'. Performances will take place on Wednesday 2nd July for 6H and 6F classes and Thursday 3rd July for 6P and 6S classes from 5.30pm. Performances will be finished by 7pm.

Cast members in leading roles have been given a copy of the script to revise their lines, those in supporting roles are asked to used the online script sent to contacts via email to access their parts. Please feel free to print the scripts if you wish.

We would ask for your support in encouraging children to embrace the role they have been given and encourage them to learn their lines in preparation for their performances. As I'm sure you will appreciate, it is not possible to guarantee any particular role. However, we have tried to give all pupils an active role and hope everyone will play their part in working collaboratively to make the production an enjoyable experience for all.

On Thursday 17th July, Year 6 will be displaying examples of their art work collated from over the year in the Sports Hall from 3.45pm. Parents, carers and family members are welcome to join us at the art gallery until 5.30pm.

New Whole Class Reading Text

From next term, pupils will be working on The Big Amazing Poetry Book: 52 Weeks of Poetry. A link to the text is below in the whole class reading section if you wish to purchase the book.

Times Table Rock Stars

Our expectation is that pupils are logging onto Times Table Rock Stars at least four times a week for a minimum of ten minutes. This helps to support their knowledge of times tables, which underpins much of the work during the Year 6 maths curriculum. We will be running weekly competitions and prizes to encourage the children and appreciate your support in making sure the children are taking part in this homework activity. Those who do not manage to complete this can attend TTRS sessions at lunch in the week.

Walking Home

It is for individual families to decide if and when they like their child to walk to/from school alone. If you would like your child to walk home alone after school, please let the office or their class teacher know so this can be added to BROMCOM. We will be unable to allow this until this permission is received. Please find a link to NSPCC guidance on children walking home alone from school below.

Gardening and Cooking

We are very proud to continue to provide a fantastic opportunity for our pupils to attend cooking sessions. These sessions take place with their class teacher, within the School House kitchen, during the school day.

An annual voluntary contribution of £13.00 has been added to MCAS to cover the cost of ingredients, required to supplement the fresh ingredients provided from the school garden. This fee covers sessions for the whole school year, from September 2024 until July 2025.

This fee is voluntary, however, without the support of our parents, we will be unable to provide an opportunity such as this for our pupils.

To make payment, please log into your MCAS account. The fee, located within the Clubs section, is now available to be added to your basket.
