6th Class

Hi 6^th class,

I hope you are all still keeping well. Below is a number of messages along with the work for the week. Nothing needs to be printed off. Any sums or written pieces of work can be done in your copies.

• Your end of year reports can be collected from the school on Thursday 18^th June from 11am. If you have younger siblings in the school, you may collect their reports at your time-slot to save your parents / guardians making more than one journey to school.
• You will also have a small graduation in the hall on Thursday from 11-12pm.
• You will only be allowed in one by one with your parents / guardians in order to comply with social distancing guidelines.
• You will receive a small gift bag and a certificate to mark the occasion of your graduation.
• Please bring a memory stick with you so I can give you a PhotoStory – a collection of images of your time in QOA.
• If you have not already done so, please ensure that you return all your shared school books on Thursday. These books include Mathemagic, Bun Go Barr, Better English, Racing Ahead, Window of the World (history and geography). You do not need to return books you have written in such as Spelling Made Fun, Mental Maths and Handwriting workbook. If we do not receive these textbooks back we will not be in a position to distribute books to all in September.
