Year 5 and 6 Kingfishers 2025 - 2026
Welcome to Year 5 and 6
Welcome back Kingfishers! I can't wait to greet you all on our first day back.
Spellings
Spelling tests will happen each week on a Monday morning. Children will then learn new spellings in the lesson, the list of new spellings will go home with the children on a Monday. Children can access the spellings on EdShed www.edshed.com all children have their own login details, which have been sent home, please ensure they are using this website to help improve their spelling knowledge several times a week for 15 minutes.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
Reading
Children will be encouraged to quietly read during allocated time, so it would be useful if they could bring a reading book to school with them. Please continue to listen to children reading at home a few times a week.
Physical Education
The children will have PE on a Tuesday morning. Please ensure that your child comes into school on Tuesday with their PE Kit on (black shorts or track suit bottoms; red PE T-Shirt with school logo and black 1/4 zip with school logo on).
Homework
In addition to reading, spellings and times table rockstars practice, children will receive a printed out homework sheet on a Friday - which will be either maths or SPAG. Ideally ensure these are handed in on Wednesday and we will mark them in the class.
Snack
Snack is available during morning break, the menu is in the classroom for the children to see the prices, they will need cash if they want to buy anything.
Walking Home
Walking home letters will be sent out in the first week of term, if there are any changes to this, please contact the office or come and speak to Mrs Waters.
