Hello Future Year 5s

July 27, 2020

Happy Holidays to all of you,

In just a few weeks, you will officially be in Year 5. An incredibly exciting time lays ahead.

Since we couldn’t meet in person before, we thought to send you a little video – actually due to the file-size it is two videos –, were you can find out a little bit about us.

This year, you will receive your Summer Holiday activities (“Transition booklet”) through the class-blog. Here are our suggested activities. Please aim to complete a sensible amount of them. What we would most love to receive is a little postcard from a trip or activity that you have done during the summer holidays. On one side, please draw yourself during this activity and on the other side, please tell us a little bit about it. Please bring them in on our first day back at school. We can’t wait to read your messages.

Have a look at these packs from Third-Space-Learning.. If you had help in lessons from a grown-up, we recommend starting with Y3. For younger siblings, we have also attached Y2/3:
- Y2-Y3_Holiday_Maths_Pack
- Y4_Holiday_Maths_Packs
If you consider yourself a Maths wizard, try a few tasks from the Y5 booklet.
- Y5_Holiday_Maths_Packs
