Start and End of Day Routine

Children need to arrive at school between 08:45am and 08:55am. When they enter the classroom there will be a morning task set for the children. This may be responding to written feedback from the previous Maths or English lesson; finishing off work; completing some Arithmetic work; Grammar work; or they will be given time to read to help support them in hitting their reading target.  

Children are also welcome to attend Breakfast club at 08:30am where toast, crumpets and juice are provided free of charge and is open to all children.  

At 2:45, all children finish lessons and are given 15 minutes to independently read before leaving school through the top gate at 3:05.

Homework Expectations

In Year 5, children are expected to read for at least 15 minutes each day with at home. Please can this be recorded in their reading records daily. This is a crucial element to the children’s progression in school. If children are not showing that they are reading consistently at home (with it written in their diary), then they will be asked to attend reading club on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday break time for 10 minutes. 

Year 5 children will be given a weekly spelling list and Maths activities that focuses on our learning from that week . Homework is due in on a Thursday and we will have a spelling test every Friday and record scores to track progress. Please make sure your child is practicing these spelling words each week.
