Dear Parents,

It was lovely to share our emotional assembly with you on Thursday.. I know the children were so excited about performing for you. It felt wonderful to be in the hall with you - having a shared experience and creating memories.

Look who we met on our walk!!

Shadows have played a big part in our week this week. In science we have made shadow clocks and explored how our shadows change throughout the day

So sorry about the late post of homework last week! I know how busy families are at this time preparing for Christmas and I’m sure this failure to link the webpage was not helpful - please see this weeks shorter homework - I wanted to give the children time to complete their databases on Purple Mash so we have less this week.

Another busy week of learning in Year 5 …..
