Summer Term 2026

Welcome to Year 5

Welcome to all our new Year 5 pupils! This year is going to be an amazing year, full of lots of learning, laughter and love. 

Our Big Question this term is....

Is the climb worth the effort?

This term we will be learning about the famous mountain ranges from all across our globe in Geography, producing writing linked to Shackleton's Journey in English, enjoying our fantasty adventure novel 'Cogheart',  learning about the rebuilding of post-war Britain, and even embarking on our own 'mountain expedition' as we visit and conquer Moel Famau in North Wales.

 

Our main texts for this term are: Shackleton's Journey by William Grill and Cogheart by Peter Bunzl.

 

The Curriculum Page on the website helps you find out much more about each of the subjects.

A link to the presentation and recording of this year's curriculum morning will be shared here after the event.

If you would like to ask any further questions, please send a message on Class Dojo or make an in-person appointment with the school office.
