Welcome to Year 6!

Welcome to Year 6's class page.  This is somewhere for us to share useful information and important updates.  As a general rule, if you need it, it will be on here.  Having said that, if there is anything else that you would like to see on here, please let us know.

Year 6 Outdoor Centre Trip - for children NOT going to PGL

We are currently busy planning a fun few days for those children not going to PGL. 

As part of this, we will be taking the children to Kemspton Outdoor Centre on Thursday 25th June.  Here they will be able to take part in a range of outdoor and adventurous activities (these will be confirmed nearer the time)

Thanks to a very generous donation from Friends of Balliol, we have managed to reduce the voluntary contribution from parents to only £22.50, which is half the total cost. Whilst we appreciate that these contributions are voluntary, without a sufficient number of these, the trip may not be able to go ahead. 

Further details will be sent nearer the time, but please complete the permission form ASAP and send any voluntary contributions into school by Friday 5th June.

Details about how to pay the voluntary contribution, can be found on the  permission form above.
