Welcome to the Year 5 Class Page

Hello and welcome to our Year Five at Old Hall Primary School. This is a very exciting year for you and your child, as they explore the wonderful topics that are part of our Old Hall curriculum for Year 5.

When your child has PE, they are expected to wear a full P.E. kit and suitable trainers or pumps. Please note this half term, PE days are on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. 

Our Week

This is what our average week looks like in Year 5, this may change slightly due to school events. 

If you have any questions, you are unsure about anything or you would just like to introduce yourself, please don't hesitate to contact me via the school office between the hours of 8am - 4:30pm Monday - Friday. 

Our Year 5 Learning

At Old Hall we are proud of the broad curriculum we offer. The children enjoy a wide variety of subjects and this helps to develop our children and their learning. We believe that this is a fundamental part of supporting children with their understanding of the World in which they live. Please see highlights of our half term which we will continue to update below.

Here is the curriculum map for Year 5, it contains all the exciting, interesting things we will be learning this year. 

On our class page, you can take a look at what we will be learning about each term, as well as keep track of any important reminders or special dates for the children.

Times Tables

Being confident in times tables is still extremely important in Year 5. Mathematical questions become increasingly harder and having the fluency with times tables will enable them to tackle these questions with more ease. Daily practice of times tables in still recommended in Year 5.

Spellings

This half term we will be looking at previous spellings so the children can recap words from earlier in the year. These will be taught alongside the Y5/6 common exception words. Words have been chosen that can be used in their writing for the half term.
