Final Year 5 Blog of the Year 2024/25

And we have arrived at the end! What a fantastic week to finish off such a wonderful year. As tradition, Year 5 get to take part in Year 6’s end of year performance (which was outstanding!). Our children grew in confidence as each performance went on and really did save their best until last. Some children even stepped in on last minute to read the lines of other children who were absent which showed incredible bravery, resilience and confidence- thank you to those children! We are still scraping the final pieces of glitter and face paint from the carpet but it was all worth it in the end as the Indian braves gave their best war cries and dances whilst our sea creatures glided across the lagoon.

With the final days becoming more relaxed, teachers have ‘forgotten’ to blow the whistle at the end of break times, which has allowed the children to get the most out of their last few break times of the year.

Let’s Celebrate

  • Learner of the Year- This week our award goes to Finley for displaying all of our learning characteristics throughout the whole year. It did not surprise me to see that you had won the children’s vote for this award. Your teachers have always known that you display all of our characteristics so it is brilliant to see that your classmates have also seen this.


  • Virtue Star of the Year- Our winner, voted by the children, for our star of the year goes to Ciaran. You are such a liked member of our class Ciaran but this does not come from your football skills or your jokes, it comes from you being a good and hardworking person- a person who always displays our virtues day in and day out. You are so full of kindness and this is something we all see everyday. Never change in this regard.

Notices

  • Homework- There is no official homework set over the summer but it is vital that children keep on top of their times tables, reading and handwriting so they are ready for Year 6 and can get the ball rolling straight away.

  • Book Collection- Please can everyone have a look at home for any library books, which are to be brought in back in September.

  • Football Kits- Any school football kits that are found at home over summer need to be brought back in to Mr Cornwell in September.

  • School will reopen for the new year on 2nd September.

    Have a fantastic and safe summer holidays!
