Years 5 & 6 - Oak Class

Welcome to Oak Class (The Mighty Oaks!)

In Year 6 we are taught by Mr O'Connell Monday and Tuesday, and Mrs Buddery Wednesday to Friday.

Learning

Welcome to the Autumn Term in Oak Class.  This term is an exciting term for our new Year 5/6 pupils as they become the senior members of our school and they take on a range of leadership responsibilities.  To see what we will be learning in each of our subjects, please download the 'Curriculum Overview' document below. 

PE & Forest School

PE will be on a Monday afternoon for the first half-term and children should bring their full kit into school, including trainers.

The Golden Mile will take place on Tuesday mornings - all children must wear trainers for this.

We do not have weekly Forest School in the Autumn Term, but we will be going to Ferrises Wood for a day (date TBC).

Homework 

*Regular reading is the most important homework of all!*

Homework will be set every week and include a maths and an English task.  In addition, children are expected to read every night and do regular spelling and times-tables practice.  Spelling tests will take place on a Tuesday and Times Table tests on a Monday.  Parental support and encouragement with homework is essential.     

Reading 

We have a well-stocked library in Oak Class, from which the children are encouraged to select a quality text.
