Mrs Amal and Miss Lett are happy to welcome you to our Year 5 page. You can read key information and see highlights of what we get up to over the course of the academic year. We will update you on what’s happening in school via Class Dojo and Parent App. Please check these platforms regularly as this is how we communicate all the information you need to know. You can also see what’s going on in the wider school community on our Instagram feed.
Summer 1 Newsletter coming soon…..
PE – Children have PE sessions on Wednesdays and will come to school wearing their PE uniform – (white top, dark jogging bottoms / leggings, school jumper, cardigan or hoodie and trainers).
Water Bottles – We encourage all children to bring a water bottle in school to stay hydrated!
Homework – We will be setting Maths and English homework each week on a Thursday. This will be in your child’s homework book. Please return homework by the following Wednesday.
Spelling Tests – We will be learning different spelling patterns each week in year 5 using the Superhero Spelling scheme. The children will take part in fun spelling games to help them learn the patterns and we will be sending them home each Thursday in their homework book and on Class Dojo. The spellings will be tested on the following Tuesday.
Times Tables – To support the maths curriculum, all children are encouraged to continue learning and practising their times tables up to 12 x 12. Regular practice is the best way to make times tables stick, so having them up around the house, listening to times tables songs and regularly using Times Tables Rockstars will help!
