Welcome to Jaguar Class

Hello Yellow – World Mental Health Day

Dear parents and carers,
Our school will be taking part in Hello Yellow on Friday 10th October (World
Mental Health Day) to raise awareness and funds for YoungMinds, the UK’s
leading charity for young people’s mental health.
No young person should feel alone with their mental health and that’s why
Hello Yellow matters. We’re taking this opportunity as a school community to
come together and show our students that we’re with them and they’re never
alone with their mental health.

We’ll be taking part by wearing YELLOW on Friday 10th October.

You can also donate to support our school’s fundraising YoungMinds – Myddle CE Primary School

Most importantly, we want to share the resources which YoungMinds offer to
support parents and carers if you ever need help and advice to support your
children. This includes:
• online resources (www.youngminds.org.uk/parent/)
• a phone line, open 9.30am-4pm (0808 802 5544)
• an online chat for parents and carers to speak to trained
professionals if you’re concerned about your children’s mental
health (www.youngminds.org.uk/parents-helpline/)

        Welcome to Y5&6
We are called the ‘Jaguar’ class. As the oldest class in the school, the pupils require the need to have a strong responsibility to demonstrate a fantastic work and behaviour ethic to set a good example for the younger pupils at the school. For the Year 6s, as this year is their final year at primary school, all of their learning in the classroom shall be building towards their end of KS2 SATs assessments, which take place in the Summer term.
       As part of being in Jaguar class, the Y6 children have many roles to play around the school including sports leaders, delivering celebration assemblies, library monitors and school / eco councillors. This helps the children to show leadership skills, being more responsible and independent, and to give them further confidence at speaking in front of others. This will help to prepare the children for when they move onto secondary school in Year 7.
       A reading, maths and sentence based homework is given to the children on a Friday and is expected to be returned by the following Wednesday. It is vital that pupils complete these (with increasing independence) as it helps them to practise their comprehension skills and consolidate their maths understanding from what they’ve been learning in the classroom. Pupils are encouraged to read at home regularly and to bring their reading records back to school on a daily basis so that we can see how hard the children have been working at home on their reading. This will allow us to celebrate their achievements with the rest of the school on a Friday in our celebration assembly. This year, we shall be starting a new reading chart in class and each half term, there shall be a competition to see which children are reading aloud the most at home.
       PE shall be taught on a Wednesday morning (sports coach Neil Prescott) and on a Thursday afternoon. Therefore, children can wear their PE kits to school on these days.
      Music lessons shall continued to be taught by Mrs White on a Thursday morning.

SCIENCE

Today, the children have been investigating which materials are electrical conductors. Having created working electrical circuits, they added different materials into the circuit to identify if that had an effect on the flow of the electrical current.

 

PSHE

It has been fantastic having many parents giving up their time in helping to deliver careers advice to the children in Y5&6 during the Spring Term. Thank you to everybody who has done so!
