Spy Day!

We are having a Top Secret time in Year 5!  Today is Spy Day and every child has come dressed as a spy! We are so proud of the children, as they have spent lots of time planning and designing their Gadgets and this morning have enjoyed actually making them!  Thanks to all the grown-ups at home for joining in with the fun and helping to find some of the resources, ready for today, we really appreciate it and your children have had a great time making their fantastic Gadgets!


Ms McCoy's Favourite Childhood Book

When I was growing up many moons ago, I used to love to read adventure stories. My most favourite of those was I am David by Anne Holm. I think the story was so special to me because I received it as an award from school and as soon as I opened it, I was captivated by the adventure. I've even dug the book out of my bookcase so that my children's can enjoy it too. A fabulous read that it still avaible to buy today from any book sellers and if I remember rightly, it's even been made into a film. 


Year 5 Production

What an amazing family assembly Year 5 produced on Friday. They were outstanding. They didn't just write some of the script but performed it with loud clear voices, enthusiasm and joy. I was extremely proud. Well done Year 5.


Old Chapel Visit

What an amaing visit Year 5 had today when they visited Old Chapel. The children were amazed at the Victorian building and loved finding out about the history of the church. They thoroughly enjoyed going into the pulpit, vestry, balcony and especially having drinks and a biscuit. A big thank you to Mrs Buckle and Mr and Mrs Lowe who showed us around.


Top 5 Reads for Year 5 Pupils

Concerned about getting the right sort of book for your Year 5 child?  If you're thinking of purchasing an easy Christmas gift, look no further than the Top 5 Reading list.


The Victorians

What an amazing half term we've had. The children have been blown away by Michael Morpurgos' Kensuke's Kingdom, creating some fantastic stories, poems, character descriptions and news reports. 

After the holidays we're stepping back in time to The Victorian Era, where the pupils will become historians- delving into the past to learn about their present. Have a fabulous half term holiday and I look forward to seeing you in November. 


Amazing Homework Projects

I'm so proud of Year 5 and their amazing homework projects. Look how glorious they are! Thank you to all the parents for all the support that you've shown at home.
