Term 6 2025

Welcome to the last term of the year! I am so proud of every single one of you for how far you have come this year.

I just want to say how it has been an absolute pleasure teaching Owls since November. Furthermore, I want to say a massive thank you to all the parents who have been very supportive and kind.

Here is some information about this term.

Our topic this term is

What lurks beneath the sea?

Owls will be diving into deep blue oceans this term. We will be looking at different oceans around the world, types of climates and pollution in our oceans.  

Make sure you ask your child about their learning, we may even get a trip to the seaside.

Maths

This term our mathematical focus will be Money, Properties of shapes and Statistics.

Science

Our Big Idea in Science this term is ‘How does light work’ We are looking into how light helps us to see, how light moves and what we can do with shadows.

PE

PE will be on a Wednesday morning and Thursday afternoon, so PE kit (Plimsolls/trainers, shorts/tracksuit pants, t-shirt and jumper) should be in school and ready. Please note, children with earrings need to remove them prior to PE due to health and safety. In PE this term, we will be doing athletics.

 Outdoor learning

If you wish to you can also leave a pair of trousers and outdoor footwear here with us for when we use the forest school area.

Reading and spellings

Please try to read with your child every day, either their book from school or a book of your choice from home. Please try to make sure you sign their yellow reading record whenever your child reads! Each week, your child will have some spellings to practice at home. We will complete a spelling test on a Friday.

Homework

I will be handing out this term’s homework grid on Wednesday 23rd April. This grid will consist of tasks and activities that are linked to the topics that we are learning this term. Each topic will be worth 4 dojo points (this includes practicing the weeks spellings), and it is up to you and your child how many you complete over the next 6 weeks. If your child does not have a homework book, please let me know and I will provide one. My email is This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
