Welcome to Year 5!

 In Year 5, your children will enjoy a wide range of topics and develop lots of new and amazing skills.

5P will be taught by Miss Ahmed and 5S will be taught by Miss Malone and Mrs McNulty, with support from Mrs Gibson, Mr Naughton, Mrs Sant and Mrs Reddy.

Autumn: Up in the Heavens
Our first topic of the year will be “Up in the Heavens” where we will explore the wonders of Ancient Greece and the captivating realms of Earth and Space. Through this topic, our aim is to spark curiosity and deepen the children’s understanding of these fascinating areas. They will delve into the history and mythology of Ancient Greece, discover the wonders of the universe, and learn about the forces that shape our world.

Spring: Voyaging Around the World
In the spring term, we will embark on an exciting journey with our topic “Voyaging Around the World.” During this topic, the children will explore various biomes, learning about different ecosystems and their unique characteristics. They will also investigate the properties and changes of materials, and study living things and their habitats. This fascinating exploration will broaden their knowledge of the world around them and foster a love for the natural sciences.

Summer: Trip Down Memory Lane
As we enter the summer term, our focus will shift closer to home with the topic “Trip Down Memory Lane.” The children will have the opportunity to investigate our local area of Saltaire, delving into its rich history and heritage. This topic will allow them to develop valuable research skills while deepening their understanding of their own community.

We are very much looking forward to what promises to be a wonderful year.
