Introduction to Year Five
In Year 5, students are given the chance to build greater independence and grow more self-confident when learning. They are motivated to take ownership of their educational journey and manage their own responsibilities. This year, they are inspired to adopt a positive mindset, nurture resilience, and embrace challenges with a "can-do" approach. Pupils are also encouraged to showcase a range of abilities and attributes, including perseverance, resourcefulness, teamwork, and the ability to reflect on their experiences.
Our main Year 5 topics include:
Ancient Maya / Mountains
Anglo Saxons / Volcanoes
Vikings / European Region
We have the opportunity to visit Cadbury World in the Autumn term, to enhance our knowledge of the Mayan civilisation (and of course taste some tempting chocolate).
We also have an Viking experience in the Summer term where a 'Viking' visits St Nicholas. The children spend the day fully immersed in the Viking way of life, having the opportunity to handle items and hear traditional stories.
