Welcome to Year 5

One Family, Aiming High, Learning Together with God

We are really enjoying working with you and your child this year in Year 5.

In English this week, we have begun to write a narrative inspired by 'The Nowhere Emporium' by Ross MacKensie. In maths, we have continued with our decimals unit and I have been impressed with Year 5's focus, reasoning and discussions as they have been drawing and interpreting line graphs. In science, we have been classifying plants, as we explore different life cycles in our topic 'Living things and their habitats'. A great week of learning!

Things to note: 

PE has changed and will now be on a Monday and Wednesday. 

PE will take place on Monday and Wednesday. Please come into school wearing your PE kit on these days and bring a swimming kit in on Tuesdays.

If you need to get in contact for any reason please use this email address: rebeccag@spmillend.herts.sch.uk. I will aim to get back to you no later than 48 hours from receiving your email. 

Homework and reading books will be sent home on a Friday and must be returned on Wednesday. Reading records need to be filled in at least three times a week and signed by an adult at home and brought into school on Fridays for us to check.

Please remember to send your child in with a water bottle and a healthy snack. If you would like your child to walk home on their own please email the school or bring a letter in to let us know.
