Welcome to Year 5

We are excited to welcome you and your child to Year 5! Our teaching team includes Mr Johnson and Mrs Holmes (Class Teachers), Miss Cheetham and Mr Gorman (Additional Teaching Staff) and Mrs Akhtar (Learning Support Assistant).

We are proud to share our bookshelf for the Autumn Term, that links to the Character Traits – Kindness, Curiosity, Integrity, Bravery, Citizenship & Gratitude. Our new bookshelf contains a selection of high-quality texts to inspire our curriculum.

Our bookshelf texts are:

• The Iron Man by Ted Hughes
• Running on the Roof of the World by Jess Butterworth
• A Kind of Spark by Elle McNicol
• Journey by Aaron Becker
• Hidden Figures by Margot Lee Shetterly

Establishing strong relationships with our pupils and their families is our priority and we believe that communication is integral to your child’s success. Class teachers and Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) are available both before and after school to receive messages and celebrate successes.

Please look on our website for resources to help you support your child’s learning at home.

Please follow us @gbps.yearfive to find out more about your child’s learning and achievements.
