'Where everybody is somebody'
Fabulous Fox Class
Mrs Avison, Mrs Tyler and I would like to wish you a very warm welcome to Year 5!
We do hope you have all had a wonderful summer break and are ready for an exciting new year! We are looking forward to welcoming you back, so we can start our learning journey, full of curiosity, challenges and celebrations!
Please keep browsing our class page for important updates, resources to support, timetables and most importantly, the children's learning.
We feel that open lines of communication between the parent/ guardian, child and teacher are the key components to promoting a positive educational climate which is conducive to learning. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school to arrange a time, or if you wish, drop me an email:

Looking forward to seeing you all, Mrs Millane.

P.E
Safer Internet Day is the UK’s biggest celebration of online safety. Each year they cover an online issue or theme that speaks about the things young people are seeing and experiencing online. Created in consultation with young people across the UK, this year Safer Internet Day will be focusing on the issue of scams online and for young people, how to protect themselves and others, as well as what support is available to them.
This Safer Internet Day we will assess the real scale of this issue and allow young people to share their experiences and ideas on how to tackle the problem. We’ll build on the important work being done to raise awareness of issues such as online financial sextortion and we’ll also consider the future of scams, answering questions such as:
We were fortunate enough to have a visitor carry out an 'Safer Internet Day'. The children thoroughly enjoyed it, taking part in discussions and activities to raise awareness.

National Poetry Day: October 3rd 2024
Aiming to inspire a love of poetry, this event provides a fantastic opportunity to explore and celebrate poetry. From engaging with familiar poems we love, to the creative fulfilment of crafting new works. To celebrate the profound art of poetry, an art form that has the power to inspire, console, and captivate, we are holding a ‘Share a Poem’ to honour poets, their craft, and the way poetry enriches our lives.
We would like to invite your children to research, recall their favourite poem (or nursery rhyme) or even write a poem, to share with their class during the coming weeks.
The children will vote for their favourite, which will then be shared in assembly on Wednesday 2nd October.
