Welcome Back to Class 10
Welcome back to a new year in school.
We have had a wonderful Autumn term and have had lots to celebrate. During Autumn B, we have been learning about our world and exploring global warming and climate change. We've also learned a lot about key figures such as David Attenborough and Charles Darwin. We were very fortunate to have a student working with us during the Autumn term, but sadly he has now left. We wish Mr Grant all the best in his future career. On the run up to Christmas, we were able to spend some time with our Reception seeds, creating some Christmas crafts; all the children had a wonderful time and the Y6's acted as amazing role models to the younger ones. Y6 also learned to play "Jingle Bells" on the glockenspiels, as well as learning the song in French, so we had a special concert for our Reception seeds.
This half term looks set to be another interesting one. We are exploring Scandinavia and the Vikings, as well as doing a lot of cross curricular activities on orienteering - this will be explored in geography, PE and even French! We will also start thinking about SATs and will be starting our SATs burn club in January. This will take place Mon - Thurs at 8:30 in the morning, and we welcome all of Y6 to join us.
So here's to an exciting but somewhat nerve-racking year, but I'm sure the children will continue to do what they always do, and that is their best. We've got this Class 10!
Remember, be independent, focussed, try your best, be kind and most importantly, keep smiling.

Key documents
Physical Education/ Uniform
Class PE Days for year 6 are: Monday and Tuesday. Please come to school dressed in your PE kits on those days.
A reminder for our PE uniform:
- Navy hoodie with school badge
- White crew neck t-shirt (preferably with school badge)
- Navy blue jogging/tracksuit bottoms (especially in winter)
- Navy shorts (For summer or if warm enough)
- Trainers (that you don't mind getting dirty)
Please ensure that all PE kit and school uniform is labelled with your child's name inside. Your child is responsible for their own property and must look after their uniforms, especially jumpers and cardigans. Please also make sure that your child has a pair of wellies in school, with their name clearly labelled inside. The children will be doing lots of outdoor activities with forest schools and on rainy days will require their wellies.
During Autumn B, please ensure that on a Tuesday, you also have:
- Wellies (or walking boots/ old trainers that you don't mind getting muddy and/or wet)
- A waterproof coat
- Long jogging pants (it's cold outside!)
Home Learning
Pupils will be set learning tasks in the core subjects of maths and English through SATs Companion, alongside daily reading and TT Rock Stars each week. Additional tasks across the foundation subjects may also be set, which the children will be informed of. Home learning tasks will be set on Friday and must be completed by the following Friday each week. Additionally, a home learning activity sheet will be sent out each half term and the children will be encouraged to complete as many activities as possible.
Instructions for home learning can be found on our class communication and learning platform 'Showbie' which may direct them to other learning platforms.
Your child should have brought home a username and password for both of these learning platforms, as well as TT rock star. If your child is unable to log on at home, please email the class teacher to receive support.
If your child is unable to complete their home learning, please send an email to class10@fulwoodcadley.lancs.sch.uk.
Headphones
If possible, please can you provide your child with their own individual headphones which will be labelled and kept in their tray at school.
An inexpensive, wired pair are preferably as large headphones will not fit in their tray. School will not be held responsible for expensive headsets going missing so please do not send in ear buds or air pods.
Water bottles/ healthy snacks
Our classroom does get warm so please ensure your child is sent into school with a refillable water bottle. This must only contain water and not juice or cordial. If your child would like a mid-morning snack at break, please ensure this is a healthy snack like fruit or yogurt.
