Year 6 SATs Talk
Y5 to 6 Transition Reading - 'Street Child' by Berlie Doherty
In preparation for the start of year 6, we ask that pupils read the book below, on which a lot of their learning will be based. This can be read as a personal book or, if struggling with the content, as some nighttime parent/child storytime.
Reading Spine
Reading at Rickleton is always a priority and much of our learning is linked to class novels. The attached reading spine shows the class text for each term and a spine of linked and suggested reads, in many different styles and formats to suit all readers.. Parents may find this useful when choosing or buying books across the year.
PE Lessons and Kit
PE for Year 6 will take place on a MONDAY AFTERNOON and children will need PE kit.
- Non-branded solid red t-shirt or solid red long sleeved top (plain or with school logo)
- Plain black (non-branded) PE shorts or jogging bottoms. Sport leggings may be worn but must be plain black
- Sport trainers or plimsoles may be worn for PE
If PE kit is not brought, school will provide suitable equipment to ensure your child does not miss a lesson.
If a child is ill or injured, they will only be able to miss the lessons if a letter has been provided by their parent/guardian. A new letter must be provided for each lesson unless agreed with the teacher.
Additional blocks of PE will take place across the year and staff will inform parents in advance when these are due to happen.
