Welcome to Year 5
We have travelled such a long way in our learning since Reception and here we are in our final years of primary school. What a fabulous journey we’ve been on. So many different experiences and learning opportunities we have had.
Year 5 is about hard work, dedication and enjoyment. Our lessons allow us to be creative and show our learning in interesting ways. As we have progressed through the school we have developed so m,any different skills and really understand all the values within our Moral Compass. It is theses skills and values which guide us in our learning journey as we continue to grow and develop into caring citizens.

Curriculum
As always, regular reading forms an essential element of learning at home as well as instilling in the children a love of literature. We wholeheartedly recommend that you spend time enjoying and talking about books at home.
Spellings will be set each week. The children will have their spelling lists in their planners. They can practise these in their home learning journals in a variety of ways—we will send home more details on this in due course.
Handwriting is a key focus in school this term. We expect to see all written tasks, including home learning work, presented to a high standard.
Home learning will be set for Maths and English on Fridays and is to be handed in on the following Wednesday. Your child will be using their school planner to assist them with their organisation. Details of the tasks set will be in writing in their planner for you to check and refer to. Please would you sign in the planner to confirm your child has completed their home learning. We will check this every Wednesday when their home learning is handed in. Your child may also write down any useful websites in school which may be relevant to their tasks.

E-Safety
We regularly teach the children the importance of staying safe on the internet. We take part in E-safety day each year and this year was no different. Internet safety day was 6th February and this year the theme was ‘It Starts With Us!’ and provides an opportunity for schools to make the most of the positive opportunities offered online, whilst giving young people the resilience, skills, knowledge and support they need to navigate any online risks they may come across.
