Year 5

Welcome to Year 5!

 

Year 5 is in an important year in your child's education, as it prepares them for Year 6 and their future SATs tests. They continue to develop skills learnt in Lower Key Stage 2, across a broad and balanced curriculum, in which the following topics will be explored.

 

Our autumn topics consist of 'Stargazers' - where we learn all about space, and 'Pharaohs', where we learn about Ancient Egypt.

 

In the spring term, we study 'Off with her Head', which is all about The Tudors and 'Beast Creator', which is all to do with mini-beasts.

 

In the summer term, our topics are Time Traveller, in which we encounter important people from the past, and Allotments, where we learn to grow our own fruit and vegetables.

 

Your child will have the opportunity to participate in a number of school trips, including The National Space Centre and Selly Manor. We are also fortunate enough to meet an Egyptologist and have the chance to go on a five day residential to Kingswood.
