Welcome to your Friday Blog

Reading

Please keep reading over the half term holidays!

English

 We have finally completed our ‘Street Child’ novel and everyone really enjoyed our last piece of writing; an advert encouraging people to visit the Victorian circus.

Maths

The children tried really hard with their bridging addition and subtraction. To be continued after half term!

Science

We have now completed our topic on space and our solar system. This week we learned lots of facts about the moon and why it changes its appearance.

RE

Finally, we have spent the week giving a lot of thought as to how we could make the village of Longton a more loving place to live in, as part of our theme of mission. There were some fantastic ideas, including friendship clubs, fund raising ideas and ways to help the environment and protect the world God has given us.

Year 5 have once again been outstanding this half term - thank you to all of you! We will see you back in school on Monday 23rd February 2026
