Welcome to Year 5!

Wednesday 04 September 2024

Welcome back after the summer holiday. We hope you had a happy and healthy summer. It  has been great to see so many happy faces back in school.  The children have settled really well in their first week and are adapting to new routines, classrooms and teachers.

This week, we will send the children home with a reading book and a new reading record book. It is really beneficial that your child reads at home daily – it improves fluency and increases the enjoyment of reading. The children can record what they’ve read at home in the reading records. We will also set a task for them to complete at home. Please ask your child what their task is for their homework and actively encourage them to think about the presentation of their work in the journals and the importance of neat handwriting and accurate use of punctuation.

Thank you to all the children who have come to school in the correct uniform and PE kits this week. If you are unsure of the uniform, please click the link to see what is required.
