Year 5 at Little Heath

As we come to the end of this term, it feels like a good moment to pause and reflect. Believe it or not, we are already about a third of the way through the school year ! Time has flown by, and it has been wonderful to see how much the children have grown in confidence, independence, and enthusiasm for learning since September. I would like to say a huge thank you for all of the incredibly kind and generous Christmas gifts. They were very much appreciated. Myself, Mrs Reynolds and Miss Russon were delighted to buy the children a football table, a flags of the world poster and a selection of board games, and we hope these will be enjoyed during break times and wet play for the rest of the year.

Happy Friday all!  I was away for two days earlier this week, but I’m feeling much better now and am happy to be back with the class. A huge thank you to the children for settling so well on my return and keeping up their brilliant attitudes. Thank you so much to all who joined us for our class assembly this week. The children were absolutely thrilled to see you there, and they did such a fantastic job presenting. Their confidence, teamwork, and enthusiasm really shone through. It’s wonderful to see how much they have learnt – and even better to see how much they enjoy their learning. Homework this week is to complete 1 hour of Sumdog and practice the Carol Service Songs  https://youtu.be/nDJnKD-0iDw Next week  Next Friday is an exciting day in school – it’s Christmas Jumper Day and Christmas Dinner Day !
