Weekly Class Attendance Update
Dear Parents and Carers,
It has come to our attention that there are currently some video clips circulating the internet and specific sites such as ‘Tik Tok’ that are unsuitable for children and young people to view. If any pupils have seen anything that has upset them, they can speak to their teachers in school, our designated Safeguarding Team – Mrs Cook and Mrs Williams or our Computing Coordinator – Miss Charlton.
It has also come to our attention that some children and young people are accessing age inappropriate games and apps. We advise parents and carers to take note of the PEGI rating shown on games and apps. The PEGI rating gives an indication of age related content. Sometimes a game or app can look fun, but with a PEGI rating of 18+, it should not be accessed by any child or young person below this age.
Finally, the release of the PlayStation 5 has also raised some safety issues. Please refer to guidance provided by National Online Safety if you have any concerns: https://nationalsafety.com/
Alternatively, you can speak to a member of staff in school.
Daily online lessons are being provided by Oak National Academy.

Lots of our fantastic Year 5 and 6 children were chosen to be Reading Ambassadors. Over the coming weeks, they are going to be working with younger pupils to support and improve their reading. All of the children are looking forward to this and we will keep you informed about the success of this project.
Both Year 6 classes are trying really hard to improve attendance and our hard work paid off when we won the school trophy. As a reward we had a fantastic time playing on these new scooters, which some of us helped to build!
Parents and carers are invited to attend a meeting regarding SATs on Thursday, 6th February at 9 am. The meeting will provide information regarding the build up to the exams and we will answer any questions that you may have.
The meeting will be very informative and we do recommend that you attend. It should last around 30 minutes.
Thankyou in anticipation.
The Year 6 team.
