Recommended Reading List For Year 6

Forest school will take place every Monday afternoon in Term 2. Please ensure they have wellies, a coat and waterproof clothing as we will be outside whatever the weather. This will be form one of our PE sessions for the week. Our other PE session, gymnastics, will take place on a Wednesday afternoon. 

Please ensure your child has their full PE kit, including trainers, in school every day. The children are welcome to wear jogging bottoms and a zip-up or their Leavers hoodie (or similar) for outdoor PE. For indoor PE, they will need to wear a school PE t-shirt and shorts. 

They should also have a water bottle, wellies and a waterproof coat in school everyday.
