We would like to welcome you all back to school after another busy academic year. We hope that you have had a peaceful, restful and enjoyable summer, and feel refreshed for new challenges ahead. Over the coming term, year 5/6 will be focusing on the Ancient Greeks in History as well as geographical concepts including locational knowledge and human and physical aspects.

Our class novel is ‘Gold Fish boy' which is written by Lisa Thompson. After predicting what happens, we will delve deep into the book and its meaning. A story about finding friendship when you're lonely and hope when all you feel is fear.   

In maths, children will focus on place value and the main calculation methods needed in upper key stage 2. They will solve problems involved in everyday life including money, weight, capacity and volume. In science, children will focus on materials and separation, which details how different substances can be separated.

It will be a very busy but equally enjoyable term for the children, and I am sure that they will rise to the challenges set before them.
