Autumn 1 – Week 1 – 6th September 2021 … Our first week in Year 5

Dear all,

We are so excited to welcoming you back to school.

As you can see from the blog header, our year-group has changed quite a bit. We will also welcome a range of new students over the coming week.

Please remember the following:

  • School starts at 8:45 and finishes at 15:20.
  • You enter and leave at the blue flag.
  • Lunch is at 12:15 (food in the dining hall at 12:45).
  • Both cloakrooms will be downstairs, opposite Cannon Street Bridge class. London Bridge Class will only take their book-bags upstairs into the classroom.
  • Make sure that you sanitise your hands as you arrive and then get ready for the learning very swiftly.

While we will start a little more relaxed on Monday, from Tuesday we will follow almost normal lessons.

Have a look at the learning objectives below.
