Welcome to  Curlew Class Y6

Class Team - Mrs Owens and Mrs Newton

Year 6 is a unique and important year, full of new responsibilities, opportunities, and preparations for secondary school, so this meeting will be a great chance to share key information. However, we completely understand that attendance isn’t always possible, so we hope this information answers some of the questions you may have. 

Independence and Responsibility 

In Year 6, we place a strong emphasis on developing independence, maturity, and organisational skills in preparation for high school. The children will take on a variety of roles across the school—supporting younger pupils at lunchtime, helping staff with key responsibilities, and setting a positive example to the rest of the school through their behaviour, manners, and smart appearance. 

Over the next few weeks, pupils will be selected for leadership roles such as House Captains, School Councillors, and Worship Leaders. 

Homework and Reading Expectations 

Each child has been given a Homework and Reading Diary, which will be updated daily with information about subjects covered and any homework set. Homework will typically consist of: 

  • Arithmetic tasks (as in Year 5) 

  • Reading comprehension work 

  • Spellings and sentence writing
