Welcome to Year 5!

- In order to help with the smooth running of lunchtimes and to help children settle in the mornings, wherever possible order school lunches at home. Whether your child has a school or packed lunch, do ensure they bring a healthy snack (such as a piece of fruit) for them to eat at break time.

- Children should bring the correct equipment to school each day (pencil cases and reading book). Pencil cases can be left in your child's tray overnight, rather than taking them home, if they will not need them. For our writing activities, children are expected to write in blue handwriting pen only. For clarification on what is or is not appropriate stationery, please take a look at the stationery guide on our website. 

- Children should have a coat in wet weather, and a water bottle every day (containing water only).

- Ensure all personal possessions (stationery, school uniform, water bottles, lunchboxes etc.) are named - this will make it easier to reunite pupils with their lost property. 

- Our PE sessions will be on Tuesday and Friday afternoons. Children should in their PE kit on a Monday and they will bring this home on a Friday. Ideally, earrings should be removed before school, but if this is not possible, please cover them with tape.

- Children in Year 5 are permitted to walk home alone from School. Children with this permission are also allowed to bring a mobile phone which will be stored securely during the school day. A form needs to be completed to give this permission, and these can be obtained from the school office.

We are very much looking forward to a successful school year!
