Year 6 - Hawk
Welcome to Hawk Class!
Welcome to Hawk's class page. This will be somewhere for us to share useful information and important updates, as well as celebrating many of the things that we will do throughout the year. 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 me know.

Y6 ATOM LEARNING - PARENT PORTAL
Thank you to those of you who have already activated your parent portal account for Atom Learning. We plan to start using this platform for Year 6 homework in the next few weeks. As the attached information explains, a FREE parent portal account needs to be set up so that the children can access the website at home.
Within the information is a link to a video, showing you how to set up your parent portal. You can also watch this video here: https://www.loom.com/share/3e59248a2de14a1a81f91157307cabb0 Additionally, this information can be found on both class pages on the school website.
Please set up your parent portal account by Friday 15th November.
POLAR EXPLORER DAYS - Monday 9th / Tuesday 10th December
Year 6 will be holding their Polar Explorer Day this half term. This links closely with our ‘Exploration and Discovery’ topic and will help bring to life many of the areas that we will be studying during the second half of term.
Each class will have their own day, delivered by an experienced polar explorer. The children will spend time exploring the polar environment; the climate, the people, the wildlife, the effects of climate change, past and present explorers such as Scott and Shackleton, the hazards of polar travel and the equipment needed to survive in such an inhospitable location. Everything will take place during the school day and your child should wear school uniform as normal.
To support the cost of this event, we are asking for a donation of £6 per child. This can be paid by bank transfer, using the following details:
NatWest account name: Balliol Primary School
Account number: 51716526
Sort code: 60-02-13
Please use your child’s name as the reference so payment can be matched to your child. Alternatively, you can send £6 into school (in a named envelope) with your child.
Please transfer (or send in your donation in a named envelope) by Monday 20th November. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
