Welcome to Wren class We are the Wonderful Wrens! We are a hardworking, kind and caring class and we cannot wait to start our learning adventure in Year 5.
In Year 5, we try very hard to make the correct learning and behaviour choices. We collect house points and marbles when we demonstrate our school values. As a class, we have decided what we want our rewards to be. Take a look at what we are aiming for!

Our Teacher - Miss Higginbottom Hello I am Miss Higginbottom and I am so excited to be teaching Year 5 this year! Before coming to St. Mary's, I studied Primary Education with QTS at Canterbury Christ Church University and graduated in 2020. In my free time, I love watching sunsets and sunrises with my friends and family whilst exploring new places! |
Go and Do Likewise!
This term our project is called Go and Do Likewise.
It incorporates RE, Science and Computing.
As part of our English lessons, we will begin the term by writing our own parables, inspired by Jesus’ stories retold in the bible. We will then write our own narrative sequel to the story ‘The Promise’ by Nicola Davies in which a young thief snatches an old lady's bag and is compelled to make a promise to her. Will the thief keep the promise?
As part of our Science and English learning journey, we will be writing an explanation text, informing our readers of an animal’s life cycle using scientific vocabulary from our science learning.
In RE we will be exploring the role of the question ‘What would Jesus do?’ as a touchstone of Christian ethics and discipleship. A Christian is a disciple or follower of Jesus. ‘Disciple’ means ‘learner’. We will be exploring discipleship which means becoming more like Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit and how Jesus taught this to his followers using sermons and parables.
As scientists, we will be exploring how plants and animals are classified depending on their observational characteristic and understand how the Linnaean classification system is used to classify animals. We will then be exploring the life cycles of specific plants and animals, and discussing the life processes of reproduction in these living things.
