FUN DAY

Learning

Spelling

The next spelling test will be on Monday 5th February. Your child already has these. 

Please remind your child to bring their spelling books with them every Monday and encourage them to learn the spellings. 

Thank you for your support

PE lessons

In the first two weeks of this Term, students will be given an opportunity to participate in ‘Try A New Sport Fortnight’. 

Trying a different sport will allow the students to discover activities that they enjoy that they are not normally given the opportunity to participate in within their normal PE curriculum. Some of the activities involve climbing, table tennis and Taekwondo or water polo. 

Students will be required to be in their normal PE kit, and if they would like to try water polo, they should bring their swim kit. 

All students MUST bring their school uniform to change into after the lesson.

After residentials students will being Unit 2B activities.

Class Blogs and home learning

Here is the link to the Year 5 blogs. You will find an overview of your child's learning along with their home learning tasks and any important messages from your child's class teacher. 
Please check your child's class blog weekly to stay informed about their learning. 
Please encourage your child to complete their home learning.

Global Citizenship

Events In The World 

You can keep up to date with current events around the world by watching Newsround, an age appropriate news show.  Being aware of current events will help your child to make connections with a range of themes when reading in class, and it is an ideal opportunity for you to model discussing your opinions and using experiences to draw connections between events and people.

  • Individual treats can be brought into school with your child in the morning.
  • Please agree a time with the teacher in advance.
  • Children will be expected to eat any birthday treats outside of classrooms.
