Highlights From Home Y5&6 – Thursday 11th June 2020

Good evening Y5&6,

It was good to see you all on the Zoom chat earlier today. You were all looking so well despite everything that you’ve had to cope with during the past 11 weeks. It’s not ideal that your Y6-7 transition has had to happen that way, but I hope it has helped you to understand what life will be like when you start (fingers crossed) at the Corbet School in September. If you have any further questions that you have thought about since the meeting, send them to me and I shall forward them to Mrs Millward.

The plan now is that the Y6s can come back to school starting on the week beginning 22.6.20 so if you/your parents are wanting you to return, please let me know so that we can see how many Y6s there will be. If the numbers are low, you will be able to return for 4 days of the week (Mon, Tues, Thurs & Fri), but if they are high, then it will be either Monday & Tuesday OR Thursday & Friday.

Here’s today’s Highlights From Home. Well done to all of you who have completed your instruction text ‘How To Make A Laurel Wreath’.

Thursday’s 11.6.20 Highlights from Home Y5&6

Have a good evening.

Year 6 IMPORTANT INFORMATION and dates

Year 6 

I hope you all found this morning’s Zoom session with the Corbet useful and reassuring. It was lovely lovely to have had 100% of you online.

We have revieiwed our numbers and staff and now are able to let you know a date for having year 6 back in school. This will be week beginning 22.6.20 . The year 6 children will be able to come for full days, but potentially only 2 days per week (either Monday and Tuesday or Thursday and Friday). Once you have told your teacher via dojo whether you want your child to return, we will allocate you the sessions. If the numbers are low, we will be able to have the year 6 group in 4 days a week.  We didn’t think we would be able to start year 6s so soon, but due to low numbers of other other year groups, we are happy we are able to this. It was so important for us to spend some time with them, especially now that we know there will be no face to face transition time at the Corbet.

If your child is a year 6 that is already accessing the keyworker group, they will not be able to go between 2 bubbles. Therefore, you will be asked to let us know whether you would like them to spend 2 days (or possibly 4 days in year 6), or up to 5 days in the keyworker bubble.

Year 6 times will be 8:50 – 3:00 You must not arrive before 8:45 or you will overlap with the other bubbles.

ACTION: let your teacher know via dojo that you want your year 6 to return on 22nd June 

Many thanks,

C. Williams

Highlights From Home – Y5&6 Wednesday 10th June 2020

Good evening,

Unfortunately, I’ve not been able to respond as quick as I’d like to any questions or work that has been sent to me today, due to being with a larger group of key worker children in school. As many of them are a younger age group, they’ve needed quite a lot of support and guidance during the day.

Anyway, I’ve finally caught up now and so here’s the Highlights From Home today.

Wednesday’s 10.6.20 Highlights from Home Y5&6
