Mr Cunningham	Mrs Murphy	Miss Mans

We welcome all parents and children to Year 5's webpage. Year 5 is an important year in which we hope to see the pupils grow to be much more independent, have more confidence and begin to express their own opinions in a mature manner. 

If there is anything you need please send an email. You can also keep in touch with all the school information through the website, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Home-Learning

Maths and literacy home-learning is given out on a Thursday and needs to be returned on Tuesday. One page of each is expected. Your child will write the date on the apge and in their reading record. Children are also expected to complete 20 minutes of studio and 20 minutes of garage sessions each week. This is given out each Thursday and is expected to be completed by Tuesday.

Spellings

Spellings will be given on a Thursday and tested the following Thursday.there are lots of different and exciting ways that you can practise spellings including Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check, writing the words on flashcards, build the word up one letter at a time. Daily 10 minute practice will be most effective at helping to remember the spellings.
