Year 5
We are delighted to welcome you and your children to Year 5.
Welcome to our Year 5 page! The children are confident, engaged learners who consistently show commitment, respect and resilience in all aspects of school life. We are proud of the maturity and enthusiasm they bring to their learning and look forward to supporting them as they continue to grow throughout Year 5.
Uniform
We kindly remind all families of the importance of children attending school in the correct school uniform each day. Wearing the full, correct uniform helps pupils feel a sense of pride and belonging as well as supports our high standards across the school. The current expectations around school uniform are displayed on our website under school uniform.
