Welcome to Year 5

One Family, Aiming High, Learning Together with God

Welcome back to a new term! We are really enjoying working with you and your child this year in Year 5. 

Our Year 5 Team:

Miss Gnanaiah and Mrs Callaghan

Weekly Blog: 

 We have continued some great learning in Year 5 this week! In English we have carried out research and had a lively debate as we explored the link between screens and children's wellbeing as we begin up to write a balanced argument. In maths, we are continuing with our 'Decimals and Percentages' unit and I have been impressed with Year 5's focus, reasoning and discussions. Year 5 represented St. Peter's well in the tag rugby event this week and were awarded certificates for showing  respect, self-belief and determination, as well as finishing second! 

PE will take place on Tuesdays (swimming) and Fridays. 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.

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

Have a lovely weekend, 

Miss Gnanaiah and Mrs Callaghan
