Year 5 - Blwyddyn 5
Welcome to the Year 5 Noticeboard
Week beginning 13th September
Another busy week in Year 5. This work we have been lucky enough to have West Wales Fire Service Education in to school to talk about fire safety in the home. The children learnt how to keep themselves safe and to have a plan in the event of a fire.
The children are settling in really well and have now have access to OneNote and all their learning platforms. If you are unsure, then please get in contact so that we can get you connected.

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.
