Welcome to Oak class - Year 6

Year 6 is an exciting year for your children. Through their learning, we will support them in developing their independence, resilience and self confidence. High expectations will be set through the greater responsibilities the children will have in many aspects of school life. The experiences in Year 6 will provide the children with the skills they need for moving on to secondary school.

If you would like to get in touch or arrange a meeting, please email using the class email: oak@hever.kent.sch.uk

PE and Forest School

PE on Wednesday

The children are to come into school in their PE kit. No matter the weather, PE will go ahead, so on rainy days please ensure the children have a spare set of PE clothes to change into if they are wet after the PE session.

Forest School on Friday

For the first half of the Autumn term, Year 6 will have forest school on a Friday morning. It is essential that the children are dressed appropriately for the environment we will be working in. They should wear suitable outdoor clothing and footwear (arms and legs covered), as well as have a waterproof coat and trousers for wet weather. They can come into school in their forest school clothes. Please ensure they bring their school uniform (including shoes) for the afternoon as they are likely to get wet/muddy on occasions.

Homework

Reading and spellings should be completed every day.

Monday: English

Tuesday: Maths

Wedensday: Science

English, Maths and Science will be set on Atom Prime. You should have been sent a link/login details for your child. Please check your 'junk mail' as there is a possibility it will have gone there. Your child will be given their login details on a card to bring home. The children will have one week to complete each assignment. There will be a weekly homework club which the children can attend to support the completion of homework.
