Welcome to Year 6 - 2026/2027! 

We’ve had a really positive start to the year with your children and we are looking forward to continuing to build relationships over your children's final year at Little Green! 

On the horizon, is the transition to secondary school; a priority in Year 6 is to prepare your children for this jump.

• Even greater independence

• Increased responsibility - whole school, wider community.

• More secondary-style learning: moving between classrooms, looking after resources and books.

• Developing organisational skills further. Planning ahead. 

• Appropriate increase in academic expectations.

Positive collaboration between pupils, parents and teachers is arguably more important now than ever.

Communication:

1. Class teacher - For any classroom/learning queries.

2. Office - For any absences or changes in pick up arrangements

3. Class email: class@littlegreen.herts.sch.uk These emails are forwarded onto the class teacher. Response time: 3-5 working days.

Please do ensure communications are respectful, positive and collaborative. 

PE and Games days are as follows:

6E (Mr Hyde): Thursday and Friday

6R (Miss Chhatralia): Tuesday and Friday

6H (Miss Brauka): Tuesday and Friday

Children are required to come to school on these days dressed ready in their PE kit. We must stress however that trainers should be in school every day (in addition to school shoes) as we hope to include exciting curriculum opportunities that require physical activity. 

Whatsapp and Social Media

Despite children not being permitted to bring smart phones onto the school site, increasingly we are finding that behaviour on Whatsapp and other online applications is having an impact on learning and well-being in school. Whatsapp, Tik-Tok and other social media are platforms that we as a school simply cannot monitor and as a result we strongly request that you monitor your children’s behaviour when using the apps. The guidance by Whatsapp is that it should not be used by children under the age of thirteen and this is because many children are not emotionally mature enough to use the platform. Each year, we are increasingly finding that children are sending messages late at night to one another and very early in the morning too – sometimes these messages can be negative in content too. Children should not be involved in large ‘class’ or ‘year group’ Whatsapp', 'Messenger' or 'Snapchat', or any other social media platform, groups. Please reinforce this at home.
