We can’t wait to welcome you all back to school for a VERY exciting year, full of challenges, fun learning and service. We are now in the process of getting it all ready for your arrival and I know as soon as you come through the door, you are going to make such wonderful leaders of the school. This is your final year at Our Lady’s- let’s make it the best one yet, where we achieve everything we are capable of, love and celebrate one another and serve the school through inspiring all of our younger pupils. Don’t forget to send all of your House Captain Speeches in, your deadline is Thursday 4th September!
Next week we will be focusing on our leadership roles within school and how our two new virtues (Learned and Wise) will be at the centre of these roles. We will be applying for the jobs we would like, looking at how WE can make a difference in our school and looking at what type of leader we hoped to be.
Don’t forget to come equipped with your own pencil cases, making sure you have all you need in there but please make sure they are small enough to fit in your chair covers or trays at the end of the day- any that are too big will be sent home.
Indoor PE days will be on a Monday. On these days you need to make sure you wear tracksuits but also have a pair of shorts either under your trousers or in your bag to get changed in to. We don’t wear trainers during indoor PE, but if there are any issues with this then I must be informed by an adult.
Outdoor PE is on a Wednesday, our first one is on Wednesday 3rd September.
Art in on a Friday- please remember to bring in your art tops to stop your uniform from getting paint on- we will keep this in our trays.
Homework- will go out on Thursday afternoons and will be due in the following Wednesday. Please support us in this process to ensure children complete their homework and hand it in on time. We are trying to prepare them for high school and taking responsibility and accountability is one of the best ways we can do this- we don’t want this to be such a shock next year.
Induction information will be sent out next week, so please look out for when it will be. You will be able discover more about the exciting opportunities and topics that they will be learning during their time in Year 6 and we can answer any questions you may have! More information, such as important forms that will need completing will be available soon so please do keep checking the Year 6 page.
Important Notices:
Please make sure all coats and school uniform is labelled- let’s get off to a good start.
Don’t forget to keep those house captain speeches coming in!
We can’t wait to see you all on Tuesday and hear about your holidays!
Water bottles are essential to keep us hydrated throughout the day.
Enjoy your last few days of the holidays and we look forward to seeing you in Year 6,
Mrs Harrison, Mrs Barker and Mrs Tierney.
