Year 5 Transition Day 2025

11th July 2025M Hanratty

Our new Year 5 children have had a fabulous couple of days in their new classroom; we’ve worked and danced our way through the days.
Day one involved playing get-to-know you games, doing some times tables practise, creating personalised hoodies and even competing in a Year 5 blooket quiz.
Day two saw us making our own self portraits, getting our first ukulele lesson and playing times table parachute! Of course we had to play a few extra games as well
We are going to have a great year together!

Y5 Shot Put

3rd July 2025M Hanratty

As part of our athletics topic in PE, Y5 have been practicing their shot putting skills. We worked in teams to throw, measure and record our distances. This activity also linked in with our maths work of converting measurements and working with decimals.

Y5 Netball

19th May 2025M Hanratty

This half term, in PE, Y5 have been learning about Netball. Our main focus has so far been on the three main passes: chest pass, shoulder pass and bounce pass. Check out our moves.

Once we were confident in passing, we moved on to footwork and defending.

3D Shapes in Y5

16th May 2025M Hanratty

To finish off our angles and shape unit, Y5 were challenged to make their own 3D shape using art straws. They needed to make sure they measured and cut the straws accurately so that the shape had the correct properties.

Amazing Angles

6th May 2025M Hanratty

After the adventure of a lifetime, Y5 threw themselves straight back into their work this morning and learned how to measure angles up to 180 degrees. The tables were transformed into collection of angles using tape and the children used protractors to measure the angles. We used whiteboard pens to mark the angles (don’t worry Mr Rudduck and Mrs Hunter- it wipes off!) and then check their partner’s work.
