Year 5

In Year 5, we encourage children to become more independent as they progress into their final years of their primary school experience. We learn about many exciting topics, such as Earth and Space, Ancient Greece, The Victorians and South America. We ensure that every child is safe and their learning needs are met whilst promoting their well being and happiness.
Throughout the year, we will have lots of exciting experiences to enhance learning. These will include visitors to school, a VR (virtual reality) day and a residential trip to Malham!
