Y5 Parents Day

Thanks very much for all the parents and carers who have filled out their requests for Y5 Parents’ Day next Wednesday (and those who have contacted us for an alternative date). If you are unsure of your time or still need to arrange an appointment, please email your child’s class teacher directly with your preferences and we will get back to you with a time.

The format of the day is similar to last year. 9-12am will be Teams or phone call appointments and 1-4pm will be Face to Face appointments in the Hall. We can also accommodate other dates if this Wednesday is inconvenient.

5M Forest

A reminder that 5M will be in the Forest tomorrow afternoon (Friday 13th) so the children will need to come to school dressed in their Forest clothes please. As 5J found out yesterday, it may get quite wet according to the forecast so can the children please adequately prepared for all weathers.

Friday – 5M Forest Afternoon. Please could all of 5M come in their Forest clothes and bring a plastic bag with them. They will be doing some Science down in the Forest looking at Air Resistance.

5M Geography

We are loving our Eastern Europe topic currently in Geography and the children are working flat out. Today, we studied the causes of the Chernobyl Disaster and looked at the after effects. I was really impressed by both the geographical vocabulary that the children used and their maturity when discussing the delicate subject matter.

5M European Day of Languages

This afternoon, we were lucky enough to have a presentation all about Finland for European Day of Languages presented to us by Theo. He had clearly spent a lot of time and effort putting it together and it was a privilege to present it to the other children for him. We learnt about Finnish food, Finnish schooling and the Northern Lights. We are going to focus a little bit more on the Northern Lights on Friday and produce some artwork to go with it!
