Hello,
Year 6 have been taking part in Bikeability and production rehearsals of 'Robin and the Sherwood Hoodies' this week. The children have worked hard on their script rehearsals and reading parts for those children taking part in Bikeability. We are looking forward to a whole cast rehearsal next week and our final performance on Wednesday 12th July at 2pm. All lines need to be learned by Tuesday 4th July.
On Tuesday 4th July 2-4pm, Year 6 will be holding their second Market Day Event for their 'Grow a £5 Challenge'. Children in school will have the opportunity to visit during the afternoon and parents and carers after school.
Enjoy the Yeadon Carnival.

Hi,
Year 6 had a fantastic start to the week with their Market Day Event as part of their 'Grow a £5 Challenge' . The children have worked really hard to think of ways to grow their £5 and there was a range of games and stalls selling cakes, fudge, cookies, bookmarks and sweets. The next Market Day Event will be on Tuesday 4th July from 2-4pm.
Next week, is Bikeability week. The children have been told which days they will be cycling. Appropriate clothing and sun cream should be worn as the children will be outside for several hours.
Parts have now been given out for the school production. Children should be learning these lines over the weekend ready for a script rehearsal on Monday.
Enjoy the weekend

Hello,
A very warm week in school!
Year 6 have made the most of the amazing weather this week and have enjoyed some additional Sports Day preparation. The field has been a perfect location with lots of shade under the trees. Water bottles, hats and sunscreen are essential this time of year.
Production rehearsals have commenced this week with learning songs and a script read through. I have been impressed with the fabulous reading and enthusiasm the children have shown. Despite being uncertain, they have surprised themselves and it has been lovely to see some potentially great performances beginning. Individual parts will be allocated next week.
The children received their £5 investment for the 'Grow a £5' challenge and have planned both individually and in groups how they will make a profit. This has been supported in maths lessons by discussing profit and loss in a variety of problem solving questions. The first Market Day Event will be held on Monday 19th June 2-4pm. Parents and carers are invited to visit after school to see the super selection of stalls and children in school can visit during the afternoon. A second Market Day Event will be held on Tuesday 4th July 2-4pm. Children taking part will need to be in school until 4pm on these days.
Year 6 also had a talk on online safety this week. This remains an important message, particularly as children become more independent. Included below is a link with useful information for parents https://saferinternet.org.uk/safer-internet-day/safer-internet-day-2023/parents-and-carers/practical-tips-for-starting-a-conversation-about-life-online
As you can see, Year 6 are having a busy time and it will be getting even busier!!!
Enjoy another sunny weekend.
