Hello lovely parents and pupils of year 6!

We are sooo excited for our production of ‘The Lion King Junior’ on Monday 18th July at 1.30pm and 6.00pm.

Tickets

Tickets will be up for grabs soon via the school office. They will be free but you will need to collect them as we will need to keep a tally of how many we have sold. Space in the evening will not be an issue as the venue can hold 700. However, during the day, we will be limited to 300 tickets for parents.

There is no charge for tickets but we would ask for a donation at the end of the show. Any funds raised will help to cover the costs of hiring the venue, costumes, performance rights etc. Any extra we make, we will be donating to a charity of the children’s choice (to be decided in the coming weeks).

Costumes

We will be providing materials for masks, extra detail on costumes e.g. felt and other materials

All that we ask is if you could supply your children with a suitable ‘base colour’ for their part – long sleeved (if possible) t-shirt and leggings/trousers/joggers.

e.g.

Giraffe – yellow

Hyena – grey or black

Elephant – grey

Lion – yellow/light brown

etc

Any questions, please send in with your children. Can all costumes please come in NAMED plastic bags which the children can hang on their pegs.

We thank you in advance for all of your help and support with costumes and fund raising. It is looking fab – we suggest you all bring tissues for the performance!!

Thank you again,

The Year 6 team

Science: How do living things adapt and change over time?

Why do they adapt? Can you find an example? Can you

design a ‘new age spy’ that has over time adapted to

their job? What might adapt? e.g eyesight, body shape etc

Spelling with beautiful handwriting – Please practise spelling the words from the list you were given last week.

MyMaths – We also have a morning maths club in the library from 8am-8.45am to help you.

Timestables – Can you think of a innovative way to learn one set of timestables? e.g. 7 x table through song, rap or rhyme…you could share this with the year group and help us all to learn them too!

R.E: How is God revealed to us? You could show this through a prayer, story, bible extract with explanation etc – be creative!

Thank you to everyone for your hard work with home learning!
