Welcome back, Year 5!

 

I hope you have all had a wonderful break and are ready for an exciting final term together. This is a very special term because it is your last one before you become Year 6 pupils! You have all grown so much this year — in confidence, kindness, teamwork and learning — and you should be incredibly proud of yourselves.

 

This term will be full of new challenges, fun memories and chances to show just how ready you are for the next step in your journey. Keep working hard, supporting one another and believing in yourselves, because amazing things happen when you do.

 

Let’s make this final Year 5 term our best one yet!

 

 

Things to Remember:

Learning Journals should be in school everyday as new information about reading books, trips, letters, homework and upcoming events will be added to it throughout the week. Homework books should also be brought in daily - make sure you check your homework timetable to see when homework is due.

 

So that we can get our learning off to a quick start, please make sure PE kits are in school everyday (take a look at our prospectus and Learning Journals to double check what is needed). Each item should be clearly labelled with your child’s name.

 

Water bottles should be brought into school daily to ensure children are hydrated and should have a sports cap.

 

 

 

The Year Group staff are:
  Teaching and Learning Lead   - Mrs Goodman
  Year Co-ordinator -    Mr Cox
 

        Class 5.1               -    Mrs Tucker
        Class 5.2               -    Mr Cox
        Class 5.3               -    Miss Wiltshire
        Class 5.4               -    Miss Raymant 

 

Teaching Assistant: Mrs Kennedy and Mrs Satchwell

 

Each child is allocated to a class and has a named class teacher.

As well as this, the classes will also be taught by other staff.
For core subjects (maths and reading) children may have other teachers leading their lessons, as we create different groupings to target their current needs and close any gaps in learning. These groupings still follow the same curriculum.
 
If you have any questions please speak to Mrs Goodman.

The children have transferred some of their tennis skills and used them in badminton. Great effort!
