Welcome to Parrot Class!

Mrs Aspey, Mrs Kelleher and I are really looking forward to everyone being back together again so we can learn lots of new things and refresh ourselves on some things we may have forgotten during lockdown!

We are excited that this term’s topic is Extreme Earth.  We will be finding out about the fantastic planet we live on – including some spectacular natural phenomena like volcanoes and earthquakes.  Our writing will be linked to this topic and will include biographies of chosen authors, poetry and reports.  We will also be doing art related to the topic - we know there are many keen artists in Parrot class!

In RE we will be looking at Hinduism and asking, ‘Why do Hindus try to be good?’

As Parrot class are ‘top’ of the school we’ll be leading the way and setting a great example all the other children about how we behave each day and our really positive attitude to learning.

Should you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact me.  I look forward to meeting you soon.

Mrs Droy

 Homework expectations

Homework will continue to be an important aspect of the children's learning during their time in Upper Key Stage 2.

Children will be expected to read daily, alongside a weekly READ task.

Children will be expected to work on their Maths Passport and spellings across the week as this will be assessed weekly.

Finally, children will be given a specific task for completion over the weekend. This will focus on either problem solving or extended writing. It is essential that this work is completed by the children themselves as it will be used during the following week in class.
