We hope all the children have had an amazing day at their new school’s and that they had a fantastic summer.
At the end of last year some special books and sketch books got forgotten. If your child did not receive their special book or sketch book please feel free to pop in and (collect it before or after school) from Mrs Holmes by 9th September.
Please email tina.holmes@stmartins.sch.gg if you would like it passed onto a younger sibling.
Best Wishes

Dear parents,
We have had a lot of parents asking for extra tickets. We have therefore decided to offer one extra ticket to each family FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE SHOW. There is no space at all for the first half as the children sit in the audience too. Please ensure you bring your two tickets with you.
If you would like a 3rd ticket, please ask your guest to come to school for approx. 8pm to watch the children’s performance.
Many thanks
Year 6 team
The children are working very hard on their Leavers’ performance- we are very proud of them! Please make sure you collect your free tickets from the office. Just a reminder that it is only 2 tickets per child- no young children are permitted.
Tomorrow, we would like all of the children to be at school by 6.30pm in their smartest school uniform ready for the formal part of the evening. All of their outfits/costumes should now be left at school ready for the second part of the evening.
Please could your child bring a cloth bag to school if they have any costume changes- these are far quieter back stage than plastic bags.
Finally, please could any report slips be returned as soon as possible.
Many thanks,
Year 6 team
We are hoping everyone has now recovered from camp and is now ready for the last 3 and half days of year 6!
Please could all children bring in their costumes tomorrow in a cloth bag- most of them had these ready the Friday before camp.
Leavers’ tickets can be collected from reception- 2 per family. We are very sorry but we have to be very strict about this as numbers are incredibly tight.
Please could as many ‘synchronised swimmers’ as possible stay after school until 4.30pm tomorrow.
On Thursday morning, year 6 are invited to wear mufti and to bring in yellow school shirts or autograph books to be signed. If you ordered a Leavers’ hoody, they are ready to be collected.
Many thanks,
The Year 6 team
Does anyone have a gazebo we could borrow for camp?
We would like to create some more shade in our field but B and Q and Aladdin’s Cave have sold out of gazebo’s.
If you have one we could borrow for the week please email tina.holmes@stmartins.sch.gg or bring it to school in the morning.
Get plenty of sleep tonight children as we have an action packed and fun week planned.
See you in the morning.
Many Thanks
Year 6 staff
So sorry for the short notice but due to unforeseen circumstances there will no longer be a Leavers’ rehearsal today after school.
Best wishes,
Year 6 Team
Dear parents,
Can you believe the last 2 weeks of term are here? For year 6 it is an incredibly busy time so apologies for the number of blogs but here are a few more reminders-
Camp
Next Tuesday we all head off to camp until the Friday afternoon. The children are very excited- many of them tell us they have already started packing! Below is the key list of items to pack and the whole summer camp booklet (just in case the original has been misplaced). Children should come to school as normal but wearing mufti suitable for camp.
Packing list
Looking at the 10 day weather forecast, there is very little chance of rain so welly boots are optional 🙂
Leavers’ Service
The Leavers’ Service is on Wednesday 18th July at 7pm. Tickets are free and can be collected from Friday 13th July- 2 tickets per family, no pre-schoolers or children are permitted to attend.
The children have thrown themselves into rehearsals this week and things are coming together well. We have asked all of the children to get their costumes ready and to bring them into school on Monday in a cloth bag (no plastic bags please as these are very noisy back stage). Children have opted for a range of parts and have been given suggestions for costumes. Absolutely no money needs to be spent on these. Please could we ask that every item of clothing is named, particularly their yellow school shirts. We have suggested that if your child has multiple costumes, they place each one inside a smaller bag within their cloth bag so they can easily find things.
Year 6 Photo Booth
The PTA did a wonderful job this afternoon taking some lovely photos of year 6. These photos will be on sale on Monday before and after school. Please pop in and have a look so that you can place an order- each photo is 50p.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any further information. Thank-you for your continued support.

Only 6 more sleeps until camp!
Plastic Bags: Please could each child bring a plastic bag to school on Friday so they can make a start taking their belongings home.
Swimming: There will be no swimming for Mrs Mason’s class on Friday due to preparation for Leavers.
Thanks for your continued support.
The Year 6 Team
The last three weeks of this term are now upon us! This week the children will be very busy preparing for their Leavers’ Evening- they have contributed so many ideas for this! Tickets for the evening will be available from Friday 13th July, 2 free tickets per family- please do not bring any pre-school/ school age children. Children who attend St Martin’s will have an opportunity to watch the year 6 performance on the last morning of term.
Just a few general reminders-
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any further information.
Thank-you for your continued support,
Year 6 Team
What a fantastic Sports’ Day the children organised and took part in last Friday. Well done everyone (especially Mrs Holmes and all the parent helpers!)
Huge thanks too, to all the parents and relatives who helped with the sponsored swim today – we couldn’t do it without you! Please could you encourage your child to collect and return their sponsorship money as soon as possible.
Leavers Hoodies: If you are in any doubt about which size hoodie to order, please feel free to take your child along to Fancy That / Print My Tees (opposite the Co-op) where they will be happy to let the children try them on.
Les Beaucamps Students: Just a reminder that students starting at Les Beaucamps High in September will not be starting until Thursday 6th September 2018.
Pupil Survey: Over the next few weeks, pupils will participate in an-island wide survey. Please see the attached letter for more information. Survey Letter to Parents_2018-2cqgk63
Leavers filming: Don’t forget that all year 6 pupils are invited to help record leavers videos on Friday 29th June, between 3-4.30 p.m. Please do not be concerned if they ask you for a random object or to borrow an item of clothing or two- all will become clear at the Leavers night.
Leavers Photo If you want to order one, £6 should be sent in an envelope to the school office by 4th July.
Book vouchers: Please can you arrange to spend the book vouchers by Friday.
Mrs Brehaut’s Class and Mrs Mason’s class will need to bring their outdoor P.E. kits to school on Friday.
Thank you for your continued support.
