Year 5 2022 - 2023

Mrs Gabriel

At the heart of everything is a personalised approach to each unique individual as part of our Christian Community. The strong family ethos ensures that all children and staff feel valued, respected and grow in self-confidence. Enthusiastic and caring staff with high expectations, demonstrate care of the whole child. Through God’s guidance we encourage each and every child to 'let their light shine'.

Year 5

Welcome to the summer term 2023. I am very much looking forward to continuing to teach Year 5 with the help of Mrs Cowap and Mrs Sweet.

One of our key aims is to foster independence and a lifelong love of learning in all of the children in our class.

This term, our topic is a STEM-based one. Year 5 will be learning all about the wonders of space through our 'Stargazers' topic.

We will be using the whole school text, 'I Wonder' by Kari Anne Holt to guide us.

Please note that there is a change to P.E. days for this half term. Year 5 will now have their P.E. lessons every Tuesday and Wednesday. Please make sure that your child wears their full P.E. kit in school on those days. Also, please make sure that all items of clothing are labelled with your child's name. Thank you.

Year 5 are required to bring their reading diary and current reading book into school every day.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me via the school office or when collecting your child at the end of the school day.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Kind Regards,

Mrs J. Gabriel

Our Class Charter

As a rights respecting school, one of the first activities completed in September is our Class Charter. The children choose a number of articles which they feel must be met at school. It is then discussed how the adults (duty bearers) and the pupils (rights holders) in school ensure that these rights are met. Have a look at our class charter below.
