Owls

“Every morning, when I enter the classroom, it is so pleasant seeing the amazing smiles and feeling the positivity from everyone.  It is always so exciting learning something new, from spellings to something you didn’t even know existed.  Having teachers that always believe in you and knowing that you can always count on them to help you is awesome!”

Welcome to Owls

Owls’ class is taught by Miss KIng and is supported by Mrs Allen. Children in Owls’ class work hard and are always happy to help each other.

 Homework

Reading – Your child will take a STAR Reader test each term which will determine which colour book-band they are on.  It is important that children have their personal reading book with them every day in school.  However, we also ask that they bring their school reading book home each day so that they can spend time reading at home. When your child has finished a book, they will be able to take an Accelerated Reader quiz.

Spellings: As part of our ongoing teaching of spelling patterns and spelling rules, these will be addressed and taught in class.  This will give us the opportunity to focus on individual gaps and any common misconceptions.  We will provide feedback at parents' meetings on specific areas of weakness and any specific spelling patterns or rules that your child needs support with.

PE (PE kit)

To see when your child has PE please click on this link to view the PE timetable.

Please ensure that your child comes to school dressed in the appropriate kit on these days.  As the weather improves please can you ensure your child has their water bottle in school and has had sunscreen applied.

Please make sure that long hair is tied up on PE days, and earrings, if worn, are removed. 

Trips and Visits

We are very lucky to be going on some fantastic trips this year and we will be taking part in some memorable experiences.  These include a trip to Harry Potter Studio Tour in December. Further trips are being planned for the rest of the year - watch this space!

Performances

In the Summer Term, Year 5 and 6 pupils will be taking part in a production. It is a great way for the Year 6 children to sign off from Nene Valley before they embark on their Secondary school journey.
