Year 5
Hello everyone in Year 5,
I hope that you are all happy and keeping safe. Thank you for all the learning you have completed while school has been closed. I have added learning tasks for the last week of school, which is next week 13th to 17th July. There are also new work packs in school to be collected. I am sorry that we will not be together again as a Year 5 class, but I look forward to seeing you all in Year 6 in September.
Enjoy the summer holidays.
Take care

Hello everyone in Year 5,
I hope that you are all well and enjoying your time with your families. I must say how impressed I am with the work completed on Purple Mash. Some of you have written amazing poems and reports; completed fabulous art work, programs on coding and using the mash cams too. Obviously, I will not be able to see any other work you have completed until we are back in school, but make sure you keep what you have been doing to show me then.
As it’s half term I thought you might like to have a go at a project to create your own time capsule to include your memories of this extraordinary time when school has been closed. I’ve included some ideas, including a science experiment to create your own rainbow! It’s up to you what else you would like to include!
Enjoy this week and the lovely weather. I miss you all and look forward to when we can be together again.
Take care
