Year 5
Weekly Update - Friday 19th December 2025
Summary of this week:
Afternoon all,
We made it! What a fantastic Autumn term it has been. I can honestly say we are immensely proud of all of the efforts of our children over the last 14 weeks. Settling into a new school year comes with many challenges, but each and every one of your children has shown maturity, respect and resilience to navigate the early stages of Year 5. We couldn’t be happier with the progress that they have all made, both socially and academically. We would like to wish you the most enjoyable and safe Winter/Christmas break and a happy New Year. We all look forward to seeing your children when we return in 2026!
