Welcome to Ash Class, Year 5! We hope you had a wonderful summer break. We are really excited to get going in upper key stage 2 There's so much to learn and enjoy as we make the step up with a view to year 6 - it'll be there before we know it! Here's some important information, but if there's anything you're not sure about, please ask at the office, or find Mr Valder at the end of the day.
Important Information
Please ensure the children bring water bottles and reading books to school every day. Children only require one snack a day which will be had during our snack time in the morning.
Home learning will be set on Tuesday and returned on the following Monday. We will also set spelling assignments on Spelling Shed. See link below.
Mr Valder's planning time will be Tuesday afternoons. Ms Jones will lead the class.
