Year 6 Autumn 2 2026
Welcome back for the second part of the Autumn term.
We hope you have had an enjoyable half term break at home with your families and are now eager to come back to school. This half term, we will be doing lots of engaging work around our history-based topic of World War I, which we think you will really enjoy! Take a look at the knowledge organiser for more information about what we will be learning.
Here are reminders of some of the things that most affect you:
- Wear your PE kit to school on Tuesdays – this should still be school colours please, and we strongly recommend warm tracksuit tops and bottoms as P.E will continue to be outside as much as possible.
- Make sure you bring a full water bottle for the day.
In year 6, homework continues to be set on a regular basis for maths and grammar. Please refer to the table below for the days this is set and collected.
You also need to read at home at least four times a week, getting your parents to sign your reading diaries. Times tables also need to be practised up to 12 x 12 in order to improve your maths fluency. Use your Times Tables Rockstars login regularly to help you with this!
| Subject | Day Given Out | Day Collected |
|---|---|---|
| Maths | Friday | Friday |
| Grammar | Monday | Monday |
Thank you to parents for your support with homework and indeed all aspects of school life.
