Happy Friday, everyone! I cannot believe we are halfway through Year 5 - time really flies when you’re having fun. It was lovely to see so many of you at the school disco last night. This week, I posted a blog update about costumes for Robin and the Sherwood Hoodies to give you an idea of the style of clothing each character might wear. Please note that these suggestions are not strict and can be interpreted in your own way - costumes do not need to look exactly the same. Costumes can be made at home or bought, depending on what is easiest for you. If you are unable to source a costume for any reason, please let me know as soon as possible and we can work together to find an alternative. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your continued support!

It’s been another busy and productive week in Year 5, with lots of fantastic learning taking place across the curriculum. The children managed to achieve 4th place in the South East England Maths Contest where there were 99 classes taking place! Amazing effort Year 5.  Robin Hood Auditions Auditions for the roles of Robin and the Sherwood Hoodies will take place on Monday next week . The children have already been given the audition piece, and this can also be found on a blog post from earlier this week for anyone who would like to practise again at home. I'm really looking forward to seeing their performances and the confidence they bring to the auditions. Homework  CGP Books (Maths and English):  TWO  pieces per week. Maths -  pages 36 and 37 & Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling pages 18 and 19. Due in for Friday 6th February.  Reading  5 x 10-minute sessions a week aloud to an adult .  Please record this in your reading record.  ...
