Welcome to Year 5 

Miss Gnanaiah and Mrs Shah

Weekly Blog:

In year 5 this week...

We have been looking at suspense, tension and mystery as we read 'The Boy in the Tower' in English; I have particularly been impressed with Year 5's insight and discussions. In maths we have started a new topic on negative numbers. In science we are looking at the topic 'Animals, including humans', focussing on growth as we plan, carry out and record experiments. A great week of learning!

PE will take place on Mondays and Fridays. Please come into school wearing your PE kit on these days. 

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 Thursday. 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.

Check our class page for regular updates about what we have been learning!
