Year 5 & 6 (UKS2)

Welcome to our Year 5/6 class page 

Currently in Year 5/6 we have four classes; two Year 5 classes, 5B and 5D, and two Year 6 classes 6P and 6R.   As a year 5 &6 team, we work closely with each other and follow the same rules, routines and ethos. Year 5 and 6 children work with their class teacher for the majority of the day.

Each morning a member of the Year 5/6 team will be on the gate to welcome the children into school and to take any messages/ questions from parents. Registration is between 8.45-8.55am. On a typical day the children will have Reading, English, Daily Maths and Maths in the morning. Lunch is between 12.30pm and 1.30pm. Afternoons consist of other subjects such as Topic, Science, Art, PE etc.

Key information: 

• Please make sure your child brings a named water bottle each day. 

• Please make sure all belongings are named as this ensures they can be returned to you much quicker.

• Children can bring their own healthy snack from home for playtime. NO nuts allowed. 

• Information about uniforms can be found here.

PE: 

Our PE days for year 5 are Tuesday and Wednesday (swimming) and for Y6, Monday and Friday.  Information about PE kit can be found here.

Homework: 

• Homework tasks, such as spellings and weekly maths homework, are posted on the google classroom.  You will also find knowledge organisers for each topic to go through with your child. 

• Children will have a home school reading book where they are expected to read each night at home; we check that this is recorded a minimum of 3 times a week in their reading record. 

• Messages/ updates are posted on our google classroom regularly. 

• Numbots/ TTRS/MyMaths - your child will be issued with logins and these will be stuck in reading diaries. 

Curriculum

Information about the school curriculum can be found here.
