Year 6 Homework - Due 15/10/26 Reading The aim in year 6 is to strengthen fluency, increase vocabulary, and build confidence through regular practice. Reading at home as well at school helps progress and encourages consistent reading habits. Your support at home is greatly appreciated.

Here are some different ways you can practise the spellings -  Maths Each week there will be Maths homework handed to the pupils on a Thursday. This homework will be based on areas of focus, pre-teaching for following lessons and recapping core subject areas. Please support them in completing this. Thank you. Have a lovely week!

 Today the Braintree Foodbank came to collect all the food that was very kindly donated to us. The Rotakids helped pack all the boxes, before they were loaded onto the van to be taken back to Braintree.  A big thank you to everyone who donated items, we will receive a certificate from the Foodbank in due course letting us know how much we have raised.

 This afternoon in Year 4, we were joined by Kev from Chelmsford Mountaineering Club. He spoke about how he has travelled all around the world, climbing different mountains. He also gave us facts about different mountains and shared some amazing pictures. At the end of the session, he showed us the equipment he uses when he climbs. Everyone in Year 4 had an amazing time!

Please find attached some comprehension questions to support with your reading at home. Your children will also have a copy of this soon in their bags. Thank you :)
