Hi everyone!

We hope that you have managed to have a lovely half term, safely enjoying some of this wonderful sunshine.

It has been great to see and hear about all the work that you have been doing over the last 10 weeks, from your packs to completing other tasks that we have set.

From now until the end of term, we will continue to upload tasks for you to complete every Monday. Over the coming weeks, we will be adding some Science and Topic lessons. This work can be found in the tabs at the top of the page, above Year 5 2019 - 2020 like we have done for English and Maths.

Remember, if you are looking for some extra tasks to complete we have added some links of some great websites with a variety of work on them - these can be found in the English and Maths sections on this page.

Stay safe, work hard and we look forward to seeing you at some point in the future.

Mrs Harker-Dempsey and Mr Boot

Picture Of The Week

Every Monday, there will be a 'Picture of the Week' with a selection of questions to find the answers to. Today we have added the answers to our eleventh picture. This week, as a challenge, we would like you to create a 'Picture of the Week' with answers. Use the previous ones as a guide to help you with the type of questions to ask. We look forward to seeing where in the world you take us.
