Dear Class 5 children and parents,

Welcome back to school for the autumn term.

We are so delighted to have the children back in school, and to have the opportunity to teach and stretch and challenge them ‘in person,’ rather than in the ‘virtual world!’

Our top priority for this first half term is to support the children in settling back into the routine (and new routines) of school, and get back on track with our learning.

We are going to start our year by learning about the history and principles of flight, about famous aviators and will be using this to inform our writing and literacy work. 

We will be learning about Leonardo Da Vinci in art, which links beautifully with our engineering and DT.  Science will focus on healthy lifestyles and healthy eating, and after half term we will learn about forces. We will do a short geography topic, and after half term, we will begin a longer topic about Ancient Egypt, which will take us though to the new year.

After half term, we will be participating in UK Parliament Week, furthering our understanding of how our democracy should work, as well as participating in formal debates. Year 6 will also definitely get their opportunity to run the school, which they missed in the summer term.

Mrs Thomas teaches Monday - Wednesday, and Mrs Lloyd Thursday and Friday. Mrs Davis is the Learning Support, and works on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

We are all thrilled to be working with your lovely children, and are looking forward to a successful and happy year of teaching and learning.

Mrs Thomas Mrs Lloyd  Mrs Davis
