Welcome back! We hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing Easter holiday and are feeling refreshed for the new term ahead. It has been lovely to see the children return to school ready to learn and share their holiday news.

This term is full of exciting learning opportunities across the curriculum. In Maths, we will be focusing on multiplication and division, with a strong emphasis on problem solving. The children will be learning how to apply their knowledge to a range of different contexts, helping them to build confidence and fluency. We will also soon begin learning the 8 times tables.

In English, we will be exploring a range of poetry, giving the children the chance to read, perform and write their own poems using creative language and imaginative ideas. Alongside this, we will be writing a non-chronological report based on The Tin Forest. The children will learn how to organise their writing using headings, subheadings and factual language.

In Science, our topic is Light. We will be learning about different sources of light, how light travels, and how shadows are formed. The children will have opportunities to take part in practical investigations to deepen their understanding.

In History, we are beginning our new topic on the Romans. We will explore who the Romans were, why they invaded Britain, and what life was like during Roman times. This is always a very engaging topic, and we are looking forward to bringing history to life in the classroom.

In Guided Reading, we are starting a new class text called The Hodgeheg. Through this, the children will continue to develop their reading comprehension skills, including making predictions, retrieving information and discussing vocabulary.

As always, reading regularly at home and practising times tables will greatly support your child’s learning in school. Thank you for your continued support we are looking forward to a busy and successful term ahead!

We are incredibly proud to celebrate the fantastic out-of-school success of Holly in Year 6.

At the weekend, Holly competed in a tennis tournament as part of the‘Play Your Way to Wimbledon’ event. She played three matches and won all three—without dropping a single game! 🏆

Thanks to this brilliant performance, Holly has now qualified for the County Finals in Southsea, which is a huge achievement.

Well done, Holly – what a success and a wonderful example of dedication, hard work, and sporting excellence. We wish you the very best of luck in the next round! 🎾👏
