Welcome to Year 6
Typical Year 6 Timetable
Key Information
Communicating with your child's class teacher:
Our direct year group email is year6@st-matthews.leeds.sch.uk. As both classes use this email, please make it clear in the subject line who the email is for (FAO Mr Davies, Mrs Fishwick or Mrs Challinor).
Names in clothing:
Please ensure that your child's clothing is clearly labelled with their name so their clothing can be rightfully returned (should it be taken off).
