Welcome to our Year 6 page!
The Leavers ‘25 hoodies are now available to order!


All orders and payments will be handled externally by Leavers Hoodies co. therefore no orders can be placed through the school.
To place an order you need to visit our Orchards School Shop by following the link below
https://www.leavershoodies.com/orchards-junior-school-2025-yr6-leavers/february-2025-1
Here, you will need to select your hoodie style, colour and size. You can also enter a suitable name/nickname to appear on the sleeve, should you want one.
Given the current financial climate, we have tried to make sure you have as much notice as possible should you want to make a purchase. The deadline for final orders will be Saturday 5th April 2025 at 00:00am – Once this has passed, no further orders can be taken.
This year, we have made the decision to organise the hoodies for earlier in the year to allow the children more opportunity to wear them before they leave.
All hoodies will be delivered to school and handed out on Friday 16th May, once the SATs have been completed. The hoodies can then be worn at playtimes and lunchtimes and on school trips but will not replace uniform during a normal school day.
If you have any questions, please let us know.
Thanks,

Throughout Year Six, various accolades will be awarded to children who have really impressed us. These include:
- Postcards of Excellence which get posted home outlining the achievement.
- Year Six Superstars who receive a badge and take part in Hall’s Happy Hour which involves baking cupcakes to take home.
Homework booklets have been sent home with the children. This is a geography/general knowledge based project that we are sure the children will enjoy. Please can the children complete the activities on a weekly basis and then bring the booklet back as they complete each task. Raffle tickets will be awarded for exceptional effort. These are drawn half-termly for a £5 WH Smith gift voucher.
MyMaths homework will be set on a Tuesday and will be due in the following Tuesday. As this is a core curriculum subject this is a compulsory task.
Many thanks for your cooperation
