French
Year 6 have been learning French with Mrs Skinner on a Thursday afternoon. The lessons usually involve a practical activity or game where the children apply the knowledge they have learnt.
So far this year, they have learnt how to tell the time on the hour and half hour, about the names of places around the school and about how French primary schools are different to St Joseph's.
Here are a few photos:

Welcome to Year 6
Dear All,
I am delighted to be your new Year 6 teacher and welcome you all back to the new academic year. I look forward to all the exciting projects and hard work that Year 6 brings. I know we are all ready for a fresh start and I am keen to get to know you all. I look forward to meeting you and am readily available before or after school if you need to speak to me at any point.
This year will be a great opportunity for the class to lead on our new school behaviour code and to show other children what fantastic role models Year 6 pupils can be. Please check this web page regularly for updates from inside the classroom!
I look forward to getting to know everyone and am sure we will have a successful year
Mrs Parker

Your child will receive homework of mental arithmetic - in line with Year 6 SATs and Spelling and Grammar activities - in line with class work. some children may be set some times tables work if it is felt that their class Maths work would benefit from extra practice.
