Good afternoon,
I hope you are well and ready for the weekend.
The visit to the Yorkshire Sculpture park was hugely successful and the pupils and staff had a great time.
Year 6 transition
The year 6 pupils have their transition to the high school over the next few weeks and most are looking forward to it. It is perfectly natural for the pupils to have a mixture of feelings, from being really excited to a little bit nervous. They are all ready for this transition and they will be fine, when they return to school we will support them. The hoodies have arrived, they have been given out and can be worn on transition and in school until the end of term. The only conditions are that they wear normal school uniform and don’t wear the hoods up inside.
School transition
Our school transition day is Thursday 6th July and the pupils will spend the day with their new class teacher. One of the teachers will be new to our school and the pupils will meet Miss Meredith on Thursday – you may have seen her around school this week. We are very lucky to have her teaching in our school and we look forward to welcoming her to our team.
A lot of time and thought goes into placing the children and we go through a lengthy process to try and get it right. We place pupils based on our knowledge of them, ability, friendships, relationship with staff and therefore giving them the best chance to succeed. Because we have up to 45 pupils per year group, our classes change yearly and the pupils understandably get excited and anxious in equal measure about their new class. Please support your child and our decisions. It is normal for them to be anxious and if you do wish to talk about it, please contact me directly.
Have a great weekend.
