Hello,
Welcome back! We have had a great first week back. I have been especially impressed this week with the quality of writing Maple Tree have produced when writing their Yeti character descriptions!
In maths, Mrs Trotter's group have been finding fractions of amounts and my group have really got stuck into the algebra unit we started before the half term break.
Excitement is mounting for the Year 6 residential trip to Peat Rigg. Mrs Trotter and I had a short meeting with the children on Wednesday to answer any last minute questions. Just a reminder that if your child requires any medication that is not required during the school day then a medical form will need to be completed (this include travel sickness pills). On Wednesday, children should arrive at the normal time but come to the hall using the side doors. On Friday, we should return around the time of the end of the school day. If we are running very late, the office will send a text message to parents. Please email the class email address or contact the office if you have any questions.
The kit list for Peat Rigg can also be found under the "Useful Documents" heading on the Maple Tree Class page on the website - https://www.ruffordparkprimary.org.uk/classes/year6maple
Have a great weekend.

Hello,
A wet and slushy end to the half term today! The children were very disappointed that we didn't get much "proper" snow to play out in!
This week we finished publishing our non-chronological reports about a twin city or town of Leeds. Year 6 did a great job of presenting their work creatively.
Year 6 have worked incredibly hard this week as we did some SATs practise papers. We are very proud of how hard the children have worked and how much progress they have made.
This afternoon, we enjoyed a lovely art lesson creating artist studies about the American photographer, Ansel Adams.
Have a lovely half term and well deserved rest!
Miss Bairstow :)

Hello,
Another busy week in school!
The highlight of this week has been the group of children heading off this morning to Young Voices in Manchester! We hope they have a fabulous time and are excited to hear all about it next week.
We had some fantastic homework projects this week for our UNESCO World Heritage Site task - including a cake! Thank you to everyone who supported their child with this task and for sending things either in person or via email.
Have a lovely weekend.
