Hello Year 6’s, Parents and Carers,

I hope that you are all keeping safe and well and that  you have the opportunity to enjoy some quality time with your family during half term. The video I have shared this week has a really positive message about transition during these strange times and  offers some great advice about this important milestone.  

Parents/Carers

I have  attached an advice sheet for parents to help you open up discussion with your child about transition and help prepare them for starting secondary school. I know transition is just as hard for parents as it is for students!  https://www.epschool.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/PiXL-Secondary-Making-the-Change-Parent-Pamphlet.pdf

Year 6 students

I have included a  time capsule activity that is optional for you to complete over half term, it may provide something a little bit different for you to do if you get a bit bored. Have a go at it if you want!  https://www.epschool.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/2020-Covid-19-time-capsule-sheets.pdf

I wish you all a relaxing and restful half term.

Keep safe,

Miss Preston
