Deer Class

Dear Parents and carers,

Welcome to Term 5. We hope that you had a wonderful Easter break!

During this term, we will continue our revision and interventions ready for our SATs on 11th - 14th May. In our English lessons we will be focusing on the short film Alma. In our afternoon subjects we will be learning about Human and Animal Classification in Science, as well as completeing a locational study in Geography related to our prior learning about WW2. For more information on this and the different subject areas, please see the topic web. We hope you find the topic web gives you a brief insight into some of the exciting activities we will be doing this term in the other areas of the curriculum.

This term, our PE sessions will be Monday (Tennis) and Tuesday (Rounders). Please ensure that your child comes to school in appropriate PE kit for an outdoor PE session on these days. Jewellery should not be worn for PE and hair should be tied back for safety.

We ask that you continue to support your child at home with SATs revsion including reading, spellings and times table practice. These systems will work in the same way as last term. For Year 6 these are still important short homework activities but focus will also now be on daily SATs revision on a chosen area of Maths or Grammar and Punctuation your child feels unconfident in. Please see Mr Hope if you need any support with this.

Important dates:

• Monday 11th to Thursday 14th May - Official SATs
• Monday 11th - Thursday 14th May  - 8am - SATs Breakfast Club
• Wednesday 6th May - 5pm - PGL Parents Evening
• Wednesday 20th (1pm drop off*)  - Friday 22nd May (1.45pm pick up*) - PGL Liddinton 

*subject to changes in timings

As always, please do not hesitate to speak to any member of the team should you want to discuss anything further.

Best wishes,

Mr Hope and the Deer Class Team
