Year 6

Welcome to Year 6
 
The teachers in Year 6 are Mrs Bishop, Mr Brown, Miss Fletcher, Miss Main and Mrs Powell. Other members of the team are Mrs Hicks, Mrs Wheeler and Mrs Wilson.
It has been another fun filled day at Quinta today!  The children will be packing up and heading home tomorrow.  We expect them at school at around 4pm, but we will send an email when they are on their way and we know more accurately when they are expected.  Following the initial email, if their arrival time then varies by more than 15 minutes, we will send a text message to update you.
Wednesday has been a great day at Quinta, with children continuing to challenge themselves and work together.  Owing to the volume of photos, we have divided them up into two slide shoes.  We will add more photos overnight, when the adults at Quinta have had time to send them through.
These are the last of the photos from Tuesday.  Some are duplicates of what we have uploaded already, they have just been taken by a second member of staff with a particular group.  We thought that rather than try and work out duplicates, you would prefer just to see the photos again!
More photos from day 1 from some of the other groups.  We know it is hard if you do not see your children, we are uploading all the photos that we receive and even if your child is not in the photos, they are safe and having a great time!
The children are having an amazing first full day at Quinta.  Everyone slept 'surprisingly' well and have thrown themselves into the day of activities with energy and enthusiasm.
 
We will continue to upload photos as staff are able to send them through.  If you don't see your child in the photos today, please don't worry, some children are camera shy, some are just always out of shot and some group leaders are not as reliable at taking photos as others!
The children have arrived safely at Quinta and the sun is shining!
