P.E.

At a time where we all find ourselves indoors for the most of the day, we should bear in mind how important daily exercise is for our health and wellbeing, particularly our mental health. If you are able to, take your device somewhere with plenty of space (even the garden on a nice sunny day) or clear some space in front of your computer and follow along with Joe Wicks for a 30 minute workout. I will definitely be doing the same!

OR alternatively, Mrs Lightfoot has uploaded some very exciting links to other online PE sessions which you can access by following this link:   Alternative P.E. Ideas

 

 

 

Transition Yearbook (Y6)

At Abberley , the summer term is usually a very exciting time for you, year 6. One focus we usually have is preparing to say a heartfelt goodbye to you and to prepare you for your next steps! Unfortunately, due to current circumstances, we are unable to give you the send-off you truly deserve (we will make sure to make up for this!). However, it is my aim in the next couple of weeks to put together a Yearbook for you all to look back on for years to come to remind you of the fond memories you have made during your time at Abberley. In order to to this, I am requesting 3 things from you: 

  1. I have attached below a file titled 'Y6 Yearbook'. You will need to print this document double-sided in colour. If you do not have a printer at home, I will leave copies in the box outside of the school entrance (under shelter) for you to collect when you are able to. Once you have completed this sheet and it is full of writing and colourful pictures, please either share a scanned copy of it with me on J2E or post it through the school letter box.
  2. Please share with me on J2E (or post through letterbox with completed yearbook page) a picture of yourself when you were younger (this could be a baby photo!).
  3. Please share with me on J2E (or post through letterbox with completed yearbook page) a picture of yourself now (ideally a copy of a school photograph if you have one).

Please know that these activities are not compulsory. If you do not feel comfortable sharing pictures of yourself on J2E to go into the yearbook, draw a picture of yourself in the picture frame as an alternative.

Please could you aim to get your yearbook page and two photographs to me or school by Monday 22nd June

Last week in school, Y6 watched the following videos all about the transition from primary to secondary school. If you were not in school last week, watch these videos here: Y6 Transition Clips
