Mr Banner, Mrs Holland, Mrs Graham and Mrs Mayor work with your children in Year 5.  

Some Reminders

Homework will now be set online and uploaded every Friday. There will be a maths and english task to complete. 

New for this year, the children will be provided with their own planner in which they will use to record, practise and test weekly spellings. They will also be able to record time spent reading at home and they can also be used as a form of communication between home and school. Please could children make sure they bring their planner into school every day. 

Weekly spellings will be given to the children on a Monday and then tested the following Monday.

On PE days, the children can come to school  in their PE kit . Both classes have PE on Thursday. PE this half term will focus and the children's development of sending and receiving. For two weeks during this half term, Year 5 will also be completing two weeks of intensive swimming in order for the children to meet the expected standard of swimming in Key Stage 2.
