Year 5J
Welcome to 5J with Mrs Hatton (Miss Jones)
Can you believe we are now into the last half term of the year? I am very much looking forward to the final part of the summer term with 5J, building on from the fantastic experiences we have had so far this year! We have lots of exciting things planned (please check the dates you were sent via email for more details) so keep an eye out on the tabs at the bottom of this page for updates. As usual, if you need anything or have a question, please don't hesitate to contact me. Please note that we have a new PE day and Year 5 pupils now need to wear their PE kit to school on a Thursday.
Reading
Reading books and records continue to be sent home and will need to be brought in to school daily. Please engage in a range of books at home with your child as often as possible. In Year 5, we endeavour to promote a love for reading and encourage pupils to read many different fiction and non-fiction books so that pupils can learn what genres they love to read the most. Every time your child reads at home, please sign in the reading record so we can keep a log of different genres read. Thank you.
Homework
Maths, Reading and Spellings homework will continue to be set each Monday and be due in by the following Monday. Reading will be allocated on Purple Mash, while other weekly homework tasks will be found on the VLE. House Points will be awarded for each activity completed so please help your child to set aside some time to complete these activities each week.
PE
In Year 5, our PE for the summer term is Thursday. Please remember to send your child into school wearing their PE kit, including pumps/trainers and their school jumper.
Uniform
Please remember to send your child into school in the correct uniform, with long hair tied up. Please ensure your child wears sensible shoes and brings a coat.
Snack
Your child is welcome to bring in a healthy snack for their morning/afternoon break times.
Overviews
Please find updates of our termly overviews below:
Well done to our School Council Representatives and our Eco Council Representatives!
These four pupils were voted to be our class representatives after confidently presenting their manifestos. We all thoroughly enjoyed being part of a democratic process and those who weren't successful this year showed resilience and congratulated our elected representatives!
Happy St Patrick's Day!
Learning
The most fun part! Please find photos and information of fun activities we've been doing for each of our topics, which will be regularly updated throughout the year.
