Class 5
Welcome to Class 5!
Welcome to the start of another academic year.
We are all absolutely delighted to see you back in school as you are all vital partners in the Class 5 Team! We know that things have been a little strange this year, but we are sure that we will all settle quickly into our new routines and will have a wonderful year where together we will all achieve great things.
Class 5 is a lovely place to be, it's a place where we work together as a team because we know and believe that Together Everyone Achieves More! It may be challenging at times as expectations increase as we grow through the school, but it will be fun and rewarding too. We will all work hard and learn many interesting and useful things over the year. Maths and English continue to be taught in the mornings, whilst other subjects are taught by our wonderful team of specialist teachers in the afternoons. A full overview of what we will cover this term and our class timetable can be found below.
We are excited about the learning journey ahead and look forward to you fulfilling your place in our team.
