Autumn Term message from Mrs Cropper:
Hello,
We’re so excited to welcome all our lovely children back after the summer holiday. We hope you’ve had a fantastic break and are ready to dive into an exciting autumn term ahead!
This term, we’ll be exploring some fascinating topics, starting with the Shang Dynasty, the ancient Chinese civilisation. Please take a look at our topic web below to gain further details on Year 5’s Autumn term curriculum.
In addition to our history adventures, the children will also begin learning the new “Let’s Go Sing” songs, which they’ll perform on stage later this year. How exciting!
Times tables are still a big focus for us this term. Make sure to log in to TT Rock Stars to practice and have some fun with your maths skills. We will be hosting a few challenges so make sure you log on!
Below is a link to the Year 5 and Year 6 spellings. These are words that all children are expected to be able to spell by the end of Year 6. It is important that we practise spelling these words, as they are commonly spelt incorrectly meaning that we may find them a little bit trickier to remember. How many can you already spell?
Here’s to a fantastic term ahead! If you need to ask anything, please come and ask.
Best wishes,
Mrs Cropper

Rain or shine litter picking!
Posted: Mar 5, 2024 by: year5 teacher (S.Cropper) on: Year 5 Blog
Last week Year 5 went out to litter pick around our school grounds- the rain didn't stop us! We were surprised by the amount of litter found along the pathways by our school entrance. An all round great success in keeping our school clean!
