Our Class Rules

In year five we decided we want out class rules to be simple and clear so that all children understand what is expected of them.

In Year 5, we promise to always show Courtesy, Kindness and Respect.

Year 5 Reminders

Tuesday and Wednesday: PE

Children must come to school in their PE kit on a Tuesday and Wednesday. PE kit consists of plain white t-shirt, black or dark blue tracksuit top/jumper and plain black trainers.

For PE, long hair must be tied back, and earrings must be taken out.

Homework

To help the children with their class learning, they are expected to complete homework which will support and enhance their classroom work. Children are expected to complete the following:

Reading – reading should be done four times a week with an adult or sibling at home. All reading should be recorded in each pupils’ homework book. If no adult or sibling is available, your child can read independently but this should still be recorded in their homework diary.
TT Rockstars – all children have their individual log in details and the recommended time per week is 30 minutes.
Spellings- children will bring home a list of spellings on a Friday and they need to learn them ready for a test the following Thursday.
Purple Mash – the children also have Purple Mash logins; children are expected to explore this learning platform and from time to time the teacher will set tasks for the children to complete online.
