Welcome back to the new school year, the children’s final year at Tipton Green Junior School. We look forward to making lots of wonderful memories and achieving many great things in the final stage of the children’s junior school experience. 

 

It is an extremely important year as we prepare the children for their SATs in May and the transition to secondary school. We endeavour to provide children with the best possible experience so that we can ensure a smooth transition for the children as they embark on their secondary adventure at the end of the year. We know that you will support the children’s attendance levels so that they have access to all key learning this year which will give them the best possible start in the future. We hope the children are well rested after their summer break and are looking forward to an exciting first week back to school. It is lovely to meet the new classes and settle them into year 6.

Curriculum

We have lots of exciting learning planned for our first term. English and Mathematics will continue to be taught daily and focus on key writing skills and mathematical calculations.  

    

The focus for our wider curriculum can be found on the curriculum overview. History learning will be supported by a fantastic chance for hands on learning when we visit Haden Hill House. 

Year 6 PE sessions are  

Outdoor PE Monday  

Indoor PE Tuesday   

Please ensure that children come into school on both PE days are wearing the correct PE uniform Please can we remind parents that no jewellery should be worn in school with the exception of stud earrings, and in line with Health and Safety guidelines these should not be worn on PE days. Children may be asked to remove earrings before PE sessions.  

P.E
Reading

 Children will continue to receive reading books linked to their ability from school and will have access to the school library where they can choose books for pleasure, they have the opportunity to change these weekly during our library slot. We encourage your children to read as many times as they can weekly and fill in progress/ areas to develop in their reading diaries, this is vitally important as it will support the children in the run up to their SATs in May.

Homework

Children will have access to the online learning platform Century, which they will have access to both in school and at home. Please encourage your children to use Century at home as class teachers will set learning ‘nuggets’ based on their lessons that week, this will help the children to consolidate their learning. Century uses a diagnostic tool so that the questions are personalised for each child. Children will also be sent home with weekly spellings to learn.

Residential
Our residential has already been booked (June 2026) to Laches Wood.  

Please continue to send your child with a named water bottle, that they can refill with water and use in school. Children can continue bring a piece of fruit to school for their morning snack.  

 

The gate to the playground will be opened at 8.35am and closed at 8.50am. Late children will need to report to the main office.   

 

We thank you in anticipation of your continued support and look forward to working with you over the next year to ensure your children have a successful year. If you have any concerns or worries staff will be available on the playground at the end of the day, please arrange a time to speak to one of us, as we are always happy to help.
