Year 5 2026 - 2027

Hello and a very warm welcome to year five! 

I am looking forward to teaching you all for the year ahead.  

We are delighted to be continuing the Wellbeing Champions (formerly Mini Medics) sessions for Year 5 on a Wednesday.  This is a series of 6 sessions during the Autumn term.  When these sessions are running, this will replace our Thursday PE session.  Details will be communicated in the weekly newsletter.

Mr Stannard will be taking you for music each Wednesday morning  and on a Thursday morning, we will be joined by Madame Carter to learn some new languages. 

We will be covering some interesting topics throughout the year including: 

• A world of different environments
• The Vikings and Anglo Saxons
• The study of North America
• The Ancient Maya

These topices will be linked to subjects from the Natioanal Curriculum such as: English (reading and writing), Maths, Science, Geography, History, Art and D&T. 

I hope you have a wonderful summer and I can’t wait to see you in September!
