Year 5 and 6: A Dynamic Learning Journey

In this exciting stage, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment where children develop a genuine love for learning, embrace new challenges, and strengthen their resilience.

Our Year 5 and 6 cohort is made up of three classes, led by a dedicated team of teachers: Mrs Riley and Mrs Bell, who share the teaching role, alongside Mr Horner and Miss Woods-Booth. Together, they work collaboratively to keep pupils engaged and motivated, encouraging them to push their learning boundaries, share ideas, and nurture their individual strengths.

We support every child in demonstrating determination, perseverance, and resilience, empowering them to achieve their personal best — all while making sure learning remains an enjoyable and rewarding experience.

Year 5/6 News and Updates 2026/27

Thursday 8th October 

In Science we have been learning about the Moon, including how it moves and why it appears to change shape when viewed from Earth.

Today, we used Oreo biscuits to model the different phases of the Moon, creating a hands-on way to explore the sequence and understand what we see from Earth.

And yes, we did get to eat them afterwards! Yum!

Internet Safety –  30th September 
Yesterday, our Year 5 and 6 children continued their learning in Computing by exploring how to identify whether a website is genuine and trustworthy.
After learning about some of the key things to look out for, the children put their new skills into practice by investigating a range of different websites and deciding whether they were genuine or not.
It was fantastic to see them applying their knowledge and thinking carefully about what they see online.
These are important life skills, helping our children to become safer, more confident and responsible internet users.
