Year 6 SATS booster sessions

All children have the opportunity to be part of a free after school club, ran by Miss Waters and Miss Astbury to support them in the lead up to the May SATS (w/c 9th May 2016).

A parents evening was held in February which emphasised the importance of these sessions and the benefit all children would receive from attending them.

Initially, 3 sessions each week was suggested, however, after further consideration it was been reduced to 2 sessions each week, as follows:

  • Maths – Tuesday 3.30 – 5.00 p.m.
  • Literacy – Thursday 3.30  – 5.00 p.m.

All children are aware of these sessions, and parent/carer permission forms have already been sent home.  It is very important that children bring their assessment books into school on these days as they are the focus of each session and children will work through individual sections in the books, based on their areas requiring improvement.

Gardening Club is back!

Clare Garnham from OASES is running this club on a Thursday night from 3.30 – 4.30 p.m. There will be a charge of £1 per week for this club. Children will need suitable outdoor gear including waterproof coat and wellingtons.  Mrs Willmot will circulate letters shortly with further details of this club.

This club runs every Thursday after school until 5.30 p.m. and costs £1.  Children can bring a portion of fruit for the movie and will be offered a carton of juice.

Year 6 SAT booster

There was a SATS parents evening on Tuesday 26th January for all Year 6 parents/carers and their children.  Year 6 staff delivered a presentation relating to the May SATS and informed of the expectations and requirements of the children.  It is important that they are supported at this busy time. SATS revision book order forms were circulated and parents/carers were given dates and details of the free SATS after school booster classes, details as follows:

Children are welcome to come to all or some of the classes depending on their areas requiring support.
