We hope you have had an amazing summer break and we can’t wait to hear what you have got up to. We will be welcoming you back on Tuesday as upper juniors who are ready to lead our school as excellent role models. Year 5 an exciting and challenging year but one that will be memorable.
Our virtues for our first half term will be Learned and Wise. These will be at the core of everything we do in school and we are always looking out for children who display these characteristics. These will be important for our class councilor votes that will be taking place in the coming weeks.
Don’t forget to come equipped with your own pencil cases, making sure you have all you need in there but please make sure they are small enough to fit in your chair covers or trays at the end of the day- any that are too big will be sent home.
Indoor PE days will be on a Tuesday. On these days you need to make sure you wear tracksuits but also have a pair of shorts either under your trousers or in your bag to get changed in to. We don’t wear trainers during indoor PE, but if there are any issues with this then I must be informed by an adult. Our first lesson will be on our first day back on Tuesday 2nd September.
Outdoor PE is on a Wednesday, our first one is on Wednesday 3rd September.
Art in on a Monday- please remember to bring in your art tops to stop your uniform from getting paint on- we will keep this in our trays.
Homework- will go out on Friday afternoons and will be due in the following Thursday. Please support us in this process to ensure children complete their homework and hand it in on time. We are trying to prepare them for Year 6 (and also high school) and taking responsibility and accountability is one of the best ways we can do this- we don’t want this to be such a shock next year.
Induction information will be sent out next week, so please look out for when it will be. You will be able discover more about the exciting opportunities and topics that they will be learning during their time in Year 5 and we can answer any questions you may have! More information, such as important forms that will need completing will be available soon so please do keep checking the Year 5 page.
Important Notices:
Please make sure all coats and school uniform is labelled- let’s get off to a good start.
Payment is live on parent pay for our trip to London on Thursday 18th September.
We can’t wait to see you all on Tuesday and hear about your holidays!
Water bottles are essential to keep us hydrated throughout the day.
Enjoy your last few days of the holidays and we look forward to seeing you in Year 5,
Mr Cornwell and Miss Johnson
