​

Welcome back to the new academic year at Elston Hall! We hope that you had a fantastic holiday and the children have been able to recharge their batteries!

​

For more information about our learning this term, please click on the curriculum overview.

Thematic

We have a fantastic topic this term linked to space called ‘Mission Control’ and we cannot wait to get stuck in learning about Earth and Beyond! 

P.E

Our PE sessions are as follows, where children come to school in their PE kit:  

Class 16 – Tuesday (as well as Monday PM swimming)  

Class 17 – Tuesday and Thursday 

Class 18 –  Tuesday and Thursday 

 

Please can we remind parents that no jewellery should be worn in school with the exception of stud earrings, and in line with Health and Safety guidelines these should not be worn on PE days.  

Spellings

Children in year 5 will be grouped according to ability for spelling. If your child is working on floppy phonics, they will have 3 lessons per week and will receive weekly spellings. If your child is working at age related spellings, they will have two Oak academy lesson per week and will receive weekly spellings. These will be given out on a Tuesday. 

​

Homework

Purple creative homework books will continue this year and we aim for it to allow our children to both consolidate their learning from class as well as move their learning on. This homework book will be coming home with your child soon – please look out for this! The insert to the book will provide further information about this.

 

Children will continue to receive reading books linked to their ability from school. Children will read regularly in school during lessons and individually with staff.  However, it is important that children are given the opportunity to also read regularly at home.

​

We look forward to working with you over the next year to ensure your children have a valuable year. If you have any questions/queries now or throughout the year, please do not hesitate to speak to us. Thank you for your continued support.
