Navigators 13

Navigators 13

Navigators 13 is a Year 6 class taught by Mr Cairns and supported by Ms Anderson.

Just a quick note to welcome your child into my class in Year 6 and to wish them every success throughout the coming year. Here are some of the important events which occur during the week.

School Day
Year 6 will enter and leave school by the main school gate: their times are 8.30am-3.15pm.

Homework
Firstly, your child will be given a set of ten words to learn on Monday and will be expected to return this work on Friday. Secondly, homework will be given out on Tuesday and again should be handed in on Friday, parents must sign homework and spellings for your child to receive his/her reward star.

Reading
As well as this, it is important that your child reads at home at least three times a week. Reading diaries will be checked on a Friday. Reading books/records should be brought to school every day. Your child will be rewarded for doing their homework, spellings and reading.

Swimming and PE
Other important events which happen during the week are swimming and P.E.

Swimming is on a Monday at Boldon Comp.

P.E. is on a Monday with Mr Gibson (Athletics) and a Friday afternoon with John Pickering (Rugby).

Your child must have the appropriate kit on these days. If your child is unable to participate then they should bring a note explaining why they cannot participate.

Thank you in anticipation of an enjoyable year, if you have any concerns please don’t hesitate to speak to me by contacting the school office or by using Class Dojo.
