Aspiration for all the Y6 children for how they have approached their Y6 tests this week, how they behaved out of school at Crucial crew and their AMAZING reading results that show every single one of them has made progress from the last test, all their hard work is paying off and we’re very proud of them!
Thank you for your parent survey returns- below are the results.
Have a good day.
Mrs Mason
Remember if children read at least 3 times in the week (proposed 3 x to encourage more children )and have their reading diary signed they can earn stickers on their chart. These stickers earn the children a prize for each milestone they hit. We will also feature their photo in the school hall and in this news post. So please support your child to read as much as possible. Thank you.
