Happy Friday, everybody, and welcome to the last blog for this academic year! It has been an absolute pleasure to teach such a lovely group of children and we are so very proud of each and every one of them! We wish them all the very best on their next steps of their educational journey.
IMPORTANT DATES
Wednesday 19th July - Year 6 Leavers' Assembly
Friday 21st July - Non-pupil day
Monday 24th July - First Day of Summer Holidays
UNICEF SHOESHARE APPEAL
Once again on the last day of term we are collecting shoes in partnership with Unicef and Clarks, who will cleverly turn our old shoes into money that will help fulfil the rights of children around the world. You can send your child with a spare pair of shoes on the final day this term so that they can place their unwanted school shoes into our collection box. If you have any other unwanted pairs you can send these in too and if you want to get started early with a big shoe clear out, we will have a box ready to take them from Monday 11th July. Shoes must be in a wearable condition with no holes or broken soles and paired together with an elastic band. You can find out more about Shoeshare here; UNICEF & CLARKS SHOESHARE APPEAL. Our last collection total was 145 pairs of shoes, let's see if together we can smash this total!

YEAR 3/4 EMAIL
Our emails will not be checked regularly from Thursday 20th July until Monday 4th September.
PHASE GROUP EMAILS
Please remember that if your child is moving classes then a new email address will be your point of contact. If your child is moving into Year 3 or Year 4 then our email is:
year3_4@downhallprimary.com
If your child is moving up to Year 5 then your point of contact is:
year 5_6@downhallprimary.com
HOMEWORK
Please can you make an effort to finish all outstanding pages in your Maths and English homework books. Whilst no official homework will be set over the Summer, it might be an idea to get your child to read regularly and log on to TTRS and Sumdog occasionally. As well, it is still not too late to enter the Summer Reading Challenge - details were on the bookmark bought home by each child.
LOOKING AHEAD TO SEPTEMBER
If you have any particular questions about next year, please ask rather than worry about these over the summer. It might be a good idea if your child is entering Year 3 to have a look at the Year 3/4 class pages of our website to see the overview of learning that will be covered.

BOOK COLLECTION
All children will need to hand in their reading diaries. We will pass these on to their next class teacher so they are ready to be re-issued in September.
The children's school work books will also be handed up - current book and most recent completed book. These completed books are sent home after the October half term.
Thank you to all of you who have supported us this year. It has been a pleasure to teach your children and we are grateful to you for your kind words. Wishing you a very happy and calm summer ahead.
Remember: children return to school on Tuesday 4th September.
Much love,
Mrs Hurley, Mr Greenfield & Miss Harvey 💙💛
