Croeso i Flwyddyn 5!

Welcome to Year 5's Class Page!

We are very excited to be back in school after our Summer break and are looking forward to an action-packed year ahead of us! As we settle back into daily school life, we will be putting plenty of focus on getting back up to speed with our key skills and will be beginning to learn about a variety of interesting topics and themes. Please keep an eye on this page for updates, progress and achievements.

On this page, you will also find lots of important information and key dates for the year ahead. We will be getting our Google Classroom set up in the very near future - please visit daily to find key information, spellings/tables and homework tasks to complete at home.

Parents - if you have any questions for us, then please send us an email and we will get back to you as soon as possible:

Mrs Ells' email address: mrsells@llanyrafonprimary.co.uk

Mr Edwards' email address: mredwards@llanyrafonprimary.co.uk

Diolch yn fawr,

  Mrs Ells, Mr Edwards & Miss Bloor 

A few important pointers for parents:

• Homework will be assigned every Thursday and will need to be completed by the following Tuesday at the latest.

• Your continued support from home with "keeping the basics on the boil" is greatly appreciated. This should include reading and comprehension practise, as well as spelling and times tables practice at home on a daily basis for approximately 15 minutes in total. Please send reading books and red reading records in to school every day for checking, quizzes and swapping.

• Year 5's P.E. sessions will be taking place on Wednesdays and Fridays to begin the Autumn Term. Learners will be expected to wear appropriate kits to school.

• Please note: Wednesday's sessions will be moving to Tuesdays later in the term. We will notify you when this change will take place.

Please make sure that P.E. kits worn to school are in line with school policy:

• Plain red t-shirt
• Black or grey bottoms
• Appropriate footwear
• Red or black jumper or top during colder weather 

We recommend that learners bring plenty of water to school and wear extra layers as the colder months approach. We will continue to have one P.E. lesson outdoors year-round (weather permitting) so make sure you are dressed appropriately for the conditions.
