Y5 have PE on Thursday. Children wear their complimentary Roby Park PE kit to school – white logo tshirt, navy joggers and jacket. In the warmer months, children may want to wear their burgundy shorts.
Children are allocated multiple books weekly on Rising Stars Reading Planet as well as a physical book which is changed weekly, linked to their stage of Reading. Physical books are changed every Monday. We expect children to read for 10 minutes every night and then to complete the end of book comprehension quiz online when they come to the end of their book. You can access Reading Planet here.
If you are looking for further reading inspiration, look no further!

History was all about maths today! Y5 learnt : The Maya were one of the first civilisations to use the concept of zero; they counted in base 20 and they used dots and bars to represent 5s and 1s. Children then created their own number line to 20. #RPHistory

St George’s Day brought a visit from @PastProductions and St George himself. Through dance and drama Year 5 retold the legend of St George and the dragon. #RPHistory.
Year 5 discussed primary and secondary sources and examined a mystery item in history today. Was it a rattle for baby? Was it a weapon for a warrior? Could it be a torch? Could it be an air freshener? All very plausible suggestions from Year 5 #RPHistory
For St George’s Day, children can wear red and white to school tomorrow. Children will enjoy workshops with Past Productions. Keep an eye on our socials to find out what we get up to…

What a fantastic start to the new term! The focus of the day was PLAY. Children discussed the benefits and potential risks of each play area before going out and testing each area. Year 5 especially enjoyed making mud pies!
