    To Year 6!

    Mrs Clow (Rowlsey) and Mrs Newton (Quarndon) wish you a very warm welcome to Year 6. 

    In Year 6, we aim to develop independence and motivation through an imaginative and engaging curriculum, which will inspire you to achieve to the best of your ability. We endeavour to support you to be the very best that you can be, through a happy, safe and creative learning environment.

    If you would like to speak to your child's class teacher, please send a letter with your child or contact the school office.

    We are looking forward to a rewarding and memorable year together!

    Opportunities 

    Here are some opportunities for Year 6 children to support others in our school and develop their leadership skills.

    Learning and Targets

    Curriculum

    Click the link below to see what your child will be learning this year. 

    Google Classrooms

    There will be times when homework is set on Google classrooms or when your child may need to access this from home. Your child will have their login details in their reading record and should know how to find any work set.

    Class Readers 2025/2026

    We are continuing to use the Activity Passport to make sure that children have the chance to try out new activities.

    This Activity Passport provides exciting ideas of activities that children can try out at home and at school and encourages them to be as creative as possible.

    Parent Information

    Should you need to contact me, please call or email the School office: info@st-johnscofe.derbyshire.sch.uk who will arrange a time for us to meet or schedule a phone conversation.

    Homework

    We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that homework is handed out on a Friday and is to be returned by Thursday.

    • Maths – maths.co.uk
    • SPaG – spag.com

    In addition to this, we also ask children to:

    • Learn the 20 spellings that are handed out on a Friday for the weekly spelling test on the following Friday
    • Independent reading/reading to an adult for 20 minutes a day, a minimum of 5 times a week – this is to be recorded in reading records and signed by an adult
    • Complete the set activities on TTRockstars

    Project Information

    We study three ‘driver’ projects each year. History drives our Project learning in the Autumn and Summer terms, whilst Geography drives our Spring learning.

    Within these ‘driver’ projects, we explore a variety of ‘companion projects’ to embed our learning.
