A successful first week back after our half term break. We hope you had a rest filled time over the half term!
This week has seen an exciting assembly delivered by 82 cap, England goalkeeper, Rachel Brown-Finnis. We enjoyed an inspiring talk about never giving up and challenging stereotypes to achieve your passions.
Our studies continue with a topic theme of Space. The children have already discovered some wonderful facts about the planet Mars and have submerged themselves in the solar system. With this, our English work is focussed on a clip from the film 'The Martian', looking at Matt Damon's character feeling lost and hopeless. We will be creating a transmission from Mars.
Addition and subtraction in Maths has drawn to a close with the pupils completing an assessment today. We had our first taste of algebra today through the inverse functions work. Very impressive indeed.
PE progresses with Gymnastics taking our indoor session and Hockey taking our Friday sessions (much to Mr Ryan's delight!).
Have a lovely weekend!
The Year 5 team.
