Class 5

Welcome to Class 5. Here is some important information about our class.

• • Mrs Canham is the teacher in Class 5
  • Every Thursday afternoon Mrs Canham has time for PPA (planning, preparation and assessment). During this session, the children will be having a specialist PE lesson with ‘Total Sports’ and a French or art lesson with Miss Ford.
  • Mrs Dale is the teaching assistant in Class 5.

   

  Outdoor clothing

  Aside from dressing appropriately for the weather, the children will need to bring a coat or jacket to school every day, which will withstand light rain.

   

  P.E.

  We have P.E. lessons on Tuesday afternoon and Thursday afternoons.

  Due to coronavirus safety measures, we are asking children to come into school on PE days in clothes that they are able to take part in sports in. Joggers or leggings with a loose top and/or sweatshirt and trainers are fine. Please avoid jeans/skirts/dresses on these days.

   

  Reading books

  We will hear children read in groups and individually regularly in class.  We would be grateful if you could hear your child read regularly.

   

  Bloomz

  At the start of the year, parents receive an access code for Bloomz which will enable them to view their child’s class Bloomz page. On here we will post homework updates and photos of activities taking place in class. The code for Class 5 is Y2BU3K.

   

  Good work Assemblies

  Due to coronavirus safety measures, we are unable to host whole school or key stage assemblies in our hall. Instead, each week we have a ‘Hangout Heroes’ Google Meet to celebrate a child’s work or attitude to learning in each class. If your child is chosen, you will receive a Bloomz message explaining why your child was chosen with a photo of them and their work.

   

  Dinner Money

  We would appreciate payment via ‘School Money’ for school dinners (£2.30 per day). However if you prefer to pay by cash or cheque please send dinner money for the week on a Monday morning in an envelope with your child’s name on and which days they would like school dinners. If you wish you are welcome to pay for several weeks at a time.

   

  Lost property

  We would like to reduce the amount of lost property we accumulate in school. To help us reunite children with lost clothes it is essential they have names on all items of clothing. Please help us by labelling all of your child’s property, including P.E. bags, kits and pack up boxes.

  Many thanks,

  Mrs Canham
