Welcome to Year 5. Please click on the link to the left to access your class page.

Welcome to Year 5. This year, the children will experience lots of fun learning activities both inside and outside the classroom. Please find information on our curriculum maps to see what we’ll be doing each half term, as well as keeping up to date with our year group half termly newsletters.

Reading Update

Dear parents,

From today, all KS2 pupils will have the opportunity to bring a book home from school. These can be changed on Mondays and Thursdays. There will be no reading record to complete as yet, which is why the three Reading Plus lessons are so important. Please make sure that book bags are only brought into school on Mondays and Thursdays.

Thank you for your continued support.
