High Street Year 6 Weekly Newsletter

What did we do over the last week?

• The Zoo Project/ Art- This week, the children have completed some more beautiful art work ready for display during the zoo project/ world of work evening.
   
• Pirates of the Curry Bean- The children have continued to refine their performance ready for our end of year production. We even introduced props... 

• Edge Hill visit- On Monday, the children travelled to Edge Hill University. The children discovered what university life entailed and explored the campus, observing the different courses that were on offer. The children thoroughly enjoyed the trip and were asking some brilliant questions to the students currently studying at the university. We had a dance workshop, a tech workshop and a tour of the campus. 

• Parents’ evening- Thank you to all parents who attended meetings this week. If you were unable to attend, your child’s report will be given to them on Monday and please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss any concerns or queries you may have regards transition to high school.
   
• ‘Dress down’ Day- On Friday, we had a ‘dress down’ day. The children were allowed to wear their own clothes and were asked to contribute items to the tombola. Thank you very much for all your contributions.  

What’s happening next week? 

• Pirates of the Curry Bean- The children will continue with their rehearsals. We will hope to see the children being less reliant on their scripts as the performance looms! 

• Zoo Project/ World of work evening- On Thursday (11/07/2019) we will be hosting a Zoo Project/ ‘World of Work’ evening. We invite all parents to come and look at our ‘Palm oil free soap’ stand in year 6 where you will be able to purchase some of our palm oil free soap. We will be able to discuss with you the purpose of our business and we will raise awareness of the importance of reducing consumption of palm oil and only using palm oil produced in a sustainable manner. 

What can you do at home to support our learning at school?

• Please help your child to learn their lines for the production. 

• Children have received a letter this week regards our trip to Waterworld. Please can these be signed and returned as soon as possible – thank you! 

• The children will be swimming next week on Tuesday afternoon. 

• Please ensure your child’s PE kit is in every day of the week and please make sure they have clothes suitable to complete outdoor PE.

• Please ensure your child has a water bottle in school to help with the warm weather. Please ensure it is filled with only water. 

If your child has been well-behaved at school all week and followed our Golden Rules, a text will be sent home on a Friday to celebrate your child’s fantastic behaviour. 

Have a great week!
