I will be posting your home learning on here in case there is an issue with Google Classrooms.  I hope you are all well and I will see you at 9am for our first lesson.

Welcome back year five,

We are so excited to be teaching you again this year.  I can't wait to upload your learning so your parents can see what we have been doing.

Miss Blakeman, Miss Hill and Mrs Newman.
