Pupils
Welcome to Class 11!
My name is Mr Norman and our learning support assistant in Miss King. All of our work will now be accessible via SeeSaw. If you need to contact me, please email: a.norman@northcote.liverpool.sch.uk
Important Information
- We have P.E on Thursday and Friday. Please ensure your child’s full P.E. kit is in school for those days. PE kits will be sent home at the end of each half term.
Reading
It is very important that your child keeps up their reading at home. Children will still be expected to read at least four times a week, using one of our online resources:
Bug Club
All children have now been allocated a login for Bug Club. Bug Club gives your child access to at home reading books at their specific reading level. Children can access the reading books online and progress through the reading levels with your support at home. More information can be found in the letter below. If you have any questions about Bug Club or need your child’s login information, please email me at a.norman@northcote.liverpool.sch.uk
Your child can login to to Bug Club here: http://www.activelearnprimary.co.uk
Reading Plus
Some children are currently accessing Reading Plus in school. If so, they will be able to log in at home. Children can access stories online, which helps develop their fluency, understanding and vocabulary. Children’s progress can be monitored by myself, therefore, it’s a great way for me to see how your child is progressing.
Your child can log in to Reading Plus here: https://student.readingplus.com/seereader/api/sec/login

Transferring from Primary School to Secondary School
At this point in Year 5, we would normally send information out all about secondary schools. I have put an online leaflet below and it has all of the important information you need to know – including the closing dates for applications. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact school.
