What have we got planned for you this week?
Tutor Groups Friendship Task
Please read all instructions for this task extremely carefully.
This task is VERY important and must be completed by ALL Year 6 children.
A parent MUST supervise this task to avoid errors, which cannot be changed at a
later date, and to ensure it is completed correctly.
Contact Mrs Carvell or Mrs Heer if you experience any technical difficulty accessing the task
and we will try to help you.
You will be asked a series of questions about your friendship choices for tutor groups next year.
Discuss this with a parent/parents to help you to make sensible and careful choices.
All other instructions are in the link below.
