Year 5
Welcome to Year 5!
Welcome to Year 5's page.
We hope you enjoy sharing the children's achievements and finding out what they have been learning throughout the year.
Throughout the Autumn term our topic in Year 5 is the Vikings and Anglo-Saxons.
The children will be learning about what life was like during this historical period. The children will also have the chance to take part in a Vikings experience day where the children will get to dress up and immerse themselves in lots of engaging activities.
The topic for the Spring term is South America. To name a few things, the children will be making their own Inca masks and also tasting South American style food.
The children will also be learning about space and the solar system during the Spring term, where they will be engaging in hands-on, practical activities.
