Hello and welcome to the Year 5 page!

We are so excited about all the fantastic things that we have planned this year! In Year 5, we have some exciting topics lined up, including South America and focusing on Brazil, Mayans, the Gunpowder Plot, Rainforests and the Great Plague.

In Science, we will be learning about reversible and irreversible changes, space, forces and the life cycles of plants and animals.

During year 5, we also participate in the Mini-Police programme and weekly swimming lessons - something we only do across the entire school!

With lots of hard work, enthusiasm and kindness to each other, we will have a very successful year in which the children will learn lots whilst smiling and making memories along the way!

Mr Welbourne and Mr Constantinou
