In Snape Class we have lots of fun and laughter! On this page you will find our class news and lots of interesting pictures showing you what we have done.

Important information about us!

Teacher: Mrs Davies and Mr Pender

LSP: Miss Hammond

Additional Important Information:

 In Year 6, our school day begins at 8:30am (8:20am for Soft Start Breakfast) and finishes at 3:10pm.

Children can bring a named water bottle which needs to contain only water or squash.

Children can bring a small healthy snack with them to school to eat at break time such as: fruit or raisins. On Tuesdays and Thursdays the children can order a piece of toast as a break time snack for 20p. 

Your child will be given a reading book specific to their reading level. We would like the children to read as much as they can at home and record this in their reading record. 

PE Day:

Every Wednesday (Swimming) and Friday

Homework:

All weekly homework will be related to SATs style questions in: reading, SPaG and mathematics.
All homework will be set on a Friday and should be returned to school by the following Wednesday.

Each half term, the children will also receive a homework grid of curriculum-based activities. They must complete a minimum of three activities from the grid and bring them into school. We are looking forward to seeing your creativity! 

Reading Challenge:
We are holding a Read to Succeed challenge again this year! Every time you read, write it in your reading record. For every comment, you will earn a point. When you reach 45 points, you will be awarded the Bronze Level; when you reach 90 points, you will be awarded Silver Level and for 135 for you be awarded Gold Level! There is also a Platinum level when you read over 50 books and a new Diamond level when you read an additional 100 books! 
Good Luck, Snape Class!
