Class teacher’s welcome
Welcome to Wildcat class page. We are very excited for the year ahead in Year 6 and have lots of exciting lessons and experiences to look forward to. As parents/carers, you play a vital role in supporting your child’s journey through Year 6. This year is an important milestone for your child’s education, as it marks their final year in primary school before transitioning to secondary school. We hope that you will find this class page useful in supporting your child through this journey.

Reading
Please encourage your child to read daily for a minimum of 20 minutes. At least 3 school book reading sessions per week should be recorded in the school Reading Record. Children should all have a school reading book (that can be changed regularly) but should be encouraged to read other material as well.
