PE days:
PE days in Year 5 are Wednesday and Friday:
Children in 5RG will have swimming sessions on Wednesday afternoons. They will need a swimming costume / shorts and a towel.
Children in 5CD will have a lesson during this time, on a Wednesday afternoon.
All children in Year 5 will have a second session on Friday.
PE kit consists of black shorts or joggers and a white t-shirt. If needed children can also wear a black hoody. These should be plain without logos.
Meet the teacher
The Year 5 'Meet the Teacher' presentation evening is Wednesday 16th September at 3:30pm.
We will upload a copy of the presentation here afterwards.
Home Learning
Homework will be set online using Atom Learning - more details to follow once we have set the children up.
Home Reading - The reading expectation is that children are heard read at home at least 3 times a week, and the reading diary to be dated and signed by an adult, stating which pages the child has read.
Topic Web
The children can complete additional topic homework if they would like to. If your child completes any additional topic homework, please send it into school so we can celebrate what they have completed and share it with the class.
Our first topic is 'Under Our Feet' - here are the optional homework activities linked to this.
