Welcome to Year 6 in Brackla Primary! The children have had a great first week and we are already looking forward to the rest of the year. Just wanted to give a few helpful pieces of information that might resolve any early questions you might have.

PE Day ⛹️‍♀️ ⛹️‍♂️ = Thursday - Please make sure your child comes to school in a plain white t-shirt and black shorts or joggers.

Outdoor Learning Day 🥾🍁🌳 = Monday. Please provide a pair of wellies with your childs name inside a labelled bag on so they can be kept on school grounds. PLEASE make sure your child has an appropriate coat on these outdoor learning days.

Reading Books 📚📚 - Please ensure that reading books & reading records are brought into school EVERY DAY. To ensure good progress, we ask that children read aloud to an adult as much as possible at home and their reading record is filled in AT LEAST once a week.

Homework 🏠💻 - Fortnightly tasks will start in a few weeks and will be sent out on Seesaw. These tasks will be seen on the Child's accounts. Please ask them to log into their accounts for you to see what the task is.

How can I help my child in Year 6??

✅ - Make sure your child is going to bed at a reasonable time and has breakfast

✅ - Have regular conversations with them about their Online activity & screen time - what games, apps, etc they are using safely and especially what 'group chats' they are a part of.

✅ - Help them be organised for transition to Year 7 by keeping an eye on School admissions. Admissions open this year in October. We will send a link closer to the date to remind you all!

See you all soon, Mr Still & Mrs Robinson
