Year 5 Lichfield Trip!

Good morning everyone,

Next Monday (12.06.23), we will be heading to Lichfield Cathedral! Below you will find a few reminders about the trip taking place…

  1. Children will need to be at school for 8:15am for a prompt departure at 8:30am.
  2. Children will need to bring a packed lunch (FSM children will have lunch provided).
  3. With the warmer weather occurring, children will need to bring sufficient amounts of water. They may also wish to bring a hat (if we have lunch outside) and sun cream.
  4. We will be leaving at approximately 2:30pm and will be hopefully back at NJS for 3:30pm. We will bring the children inside and then dismiss them on the big yard (as normal). Please look for any messages on the school Facebook page with more accurate timings.
  5. As we are travelling further, could we ask that parents provide children with any anti-sickness medication they may need. Any that need taking before the return journey will be handed to their group leader, who will ensure they have the tablet etc at the correct time. Please place any medication in a clearly named box/envelope.

We are really looking forward to this trip! It will be a brilliant comparison to our recent trip to the Mosque.

Many thanks,

Mrs Ollerenshaw

5N Messy Maths Day

The children thoroughly enjoyed the messy maths activities this afternoon! We have looked at a variety of different angles on the tables, estimated and measured the angles, drawn angles on the playground and played an interactive angle estimation game on the NRICH website.

5N Guided Reading

This morning, the children planned an informative presentation to persuade people to visit the Great Barrier Reef. They presented these to the whole class at the end of the day. Some fantastic art, computing and writing skills were displayed by the children, who thoroughly enjoyed the project!

Year 5 Swimming / 5N PE

Please could all children make sure they have their swimming kits in school tomorrow (Tuesday 6th June). Please remember goggles and swimming caps if you have them.

In addition to this, please could children in 5N come to school in their PE kits tomorrow ready for their session with Miss Goodall from NGHS.

5OP – Beech’s Base! 05.06.23

Good afternoon everyone from 5OP!

We hope that you have all had a wonderful half term!

Just a quick reminder about Beech’s Base tomorrow afternoon. You will need to bring your Beech’s base kit as normal – be mindful of the weather and old clothes will be better (incase you get muddy).

See you all tomorrow,

Mrs Ollerenshaw x

Yr 5 Messy Maths

As Monday 5th is Messy Maths day at NJS we thought we we would share what the children will be doing in Maths today.

Please don’t worry – we wont be getting “messy!”

We have set up the classrooms so the children have a messy desk – covered in tape.

The children have been challenged to identify, predict and measure each of the angles.

We have also draw some chalk angles onto the playground for the children to complete the same.
