Year 6's first week back!

The end of the first week already and it really has flown by. Year 6 have begun to realise how much is expected of them in more ways than one and are rising to the new challenges being set, sometimes on a daily basis. Well done so far, keep it up!

Next week sees the exciting launch of our World War II topic. Both Miss Renier and Mrs Doran are well prepared with outfits at the ready for Monday morning. We hope you’ve all got yours prepared too.

A few reminders about the day itself:

The coach leaves school in time to reach Hendon for opening at 10:00a.m. Both classes will be experiencing a 1940’s classroom including some old style maths using pounds shillings and pence- hopefully you’ll be better than us at spending old style money. None of us being old enough to remember those days!

There will be plenty of time to look around the museum, a short film to watch, and of course time to visit the shop.

Remember to bring your packed lunch which should include a drink, but nothing fizzy. You may bring spending money up to £5.00; it should be in a named purse and wallet. You will be able to leave your bags in a safe locker so you won’t have to carry them around all day. Lunch will be inside in the lunch area so even if the weather should be inclement as they used to say in the 1940’s we won’t have our picnic spoilt.

We will be back at school ready for a 4:30p.m. pick up and a return to 2011.

See you Monday morning scrubbed and polished ready for your evacuation.

The year 6 team.
