Welcome to our Year 5 Class at St James’
Welcome to Year 5 my name is Ms Eastick and I am the current Class teacher in Year 5. Mrs Hayden will return from her maternity leave in February 2024. In Year 5 we are supported by a variety of Teaching Assistants. We cover a huge range of topics in Year 5, which the children will undoubtedly love exploring. As well as the World Wars, we delve into the functions of the human body (including the opportunity to dissect a heart), as well as life beyond our planet where we will be unraveling the mysteries of space and our solar system. Within Year 5, learning is not restricted to within the classroom. Children will be offered the wonderful opportunity to perform live on stage during the Shakespeare Festival, as well as visiting the Youth Village.
I have no doubt the children will have a busy, fun-filled year and as is the traditional St James way, nurture, fun and creativity will be at the heart of our classroom.
