Year 5 - Blwyddyn 5
Welcome to the Year 5 Noticeboard
Week beginning 20th October 2025
Happy Halloween.
Well done on surviving the first half-term in Year 5. We are really proud of the children's effort this half-term and how well they have adapted to the new routines and teachers. We have learned about the festival of all All Hallows and the stories associated with this festival. the children have all had a go at designing a pumpkin for our entry into the PTA competition. Obviously Year 5s were the best!
Have a relaxing half-term; the children have certainly earned it.

Home Learning
Our expectation are for the children to read daily at home. We check their reading records each Friday. Please help us monitor this by keeping this record up to date.
It is essential that pupils develop quick recall of their times tables. We have regular TT Rockstars sessions in school. Pupils can practice their tables in a variety of ways including logging in to Sumdog from home
Sumdog activities will also be set on a regular basis. Each time these are set, the children have 1 week to complete these.
