Year 5 enjoyed "making millions" literally in our practical Maths session on Friday. Using digit cards, they had to make either the highest value of millions or the lowest value, winning a golden bean if they won. The class enjoyed this challenge, which covered the Year 5 objective of "Read, write, order and compare numbers to at least 1,000,000. " Brilliant Maths Year 5! Mrs Blomeley

Year 5 have started their journey back in time to learn about the Victorians! We have learnt that the Victorian period began in 1837, when Victoria became Queen, until her death in 1901, when her son, Edward, became the new monarch! We compared this to the coronation of our own new monarch, King Charles II who became King after the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth lI, two year ago. Of course, we found out about many other dates and inventions during the Victorian period which we will explore in more detail during our topic. Mrs Blomeley
Meet our new Librarians. We had our first meeting on Friday and they already have lots of plans for the year ahead. They will be very busy soon helping to organise our new library furniture. The lunchtime clubs will start very soon and they can't wait to get going.

Year 5 have got off to a great start with their PE sessions! In Tag Rugby, with Mr Williams the Sports Coach, they have been practising the correct way to hold a rugby ball, as well as learning the importance of using different kinds of passes. In Hockey, the children started by learning how to hold the wooden hockey sticks correctly and moved on to practising their dribbling skills. They enjoyed a game of "Rob the Nest" by attempting to dribble as many balls as possible from the centre "nest" to their own hoops! Brilliant work Year 5! Mrs Blomeley

What a fantastic start to Year 5 we have had! The whole class received a Headteacher's merit! It was so difficult to choose a particular person as they have all impressed me in some way! Other awards were given for great Maths work and our Good to be Green awards were presented, as always, for following our school rules of being Ready, Respectfu; and Safe! Thank you Year 5! Mrs Blomeley
