Class 7 (Year 5) - Mrs Nichol
Welcome to Class 7,
Class 7 is a year 5 class, which is taught by Mrs Nichol. We are very lucky to also be supported by our teaching assistant Ms Fletcher.
A note from Miss Richardson
Supporting your child's safety and wellbeing will remain our top priority. Should you have any questions or concerns throughout the year, we will always be available to support you so please contact us. Each day we will be available on the playground after school or alternatively, you can make an appointment through the school office.
In year 5, we cover a range of exciting topics, such as: The Bombardment, Africa, creating sculptures and Micro:Bits. Together, we will have a wonderful year full of opportunities before your transition into year 6.
A Note For Parents
Reading books
Children will bring their reading books and reading journals home from school each day and they are encouraged to read them each night, ideally an adult is to sign the reading journal daily.
Please ensure all reading books and reading journals are returned to school each day – we will be reading our reading books each day in school too.
Spelling
Your child will bring home 20 spellings on a Friday. They should practise these spellings each night and they will be tested on 10 of them the following Friday. The spelling sheets do not need to be returned to school.
Homework
Each Friday children will bring their weekly homework home. The homework will be linked to reading, SPaG (spelling, grammar and punctuation) or maths taught in class.
Homework should be returned no later than the Wednesday of the following week.
If any child is struggling or has questions about their homework, they are to ask Mrs Nichol or Ms Fletcher and they will help them in school.
Water Bottles
Children are encouraged to bring a water bottle to school. It should be labelled with your child's name. Children will bring their bottles home daily for cleaning. Please ensure that children only have water in their classroom bottle. (A separate bottle for juice can be sent in if your child has a packed lunch dinner).
PE
Your child's PE day is a Wednesday. Please ensure that your child comes to school with their PE kit in a bag.
The school’s PE kit consists of black shorts/joggers/leggings, a white t-shirt and appropriate footwear. PE, where possible, will be taking place outside so children are advised to wear a hoodie and joggers or leggings to keep warm outside, as well as trainers or plimsolls.
