Year 5 children are increasingly involved in taking on leadership roles within the school. They are able to apply to become a Sports Captain for their House, a member of the "Good Life" team who ensure that our Eco Schools accreditation is maintained, or a member of the Bike-It Crew supporting our active travel ethos. Year 5s develop their peer learning skills through our Reading Buddies scheme. |

Educational Visits & Visitors
Please check below for the proposed educational visits and visitors across this year's learning.
To reduce the financial burden on families, we invite visitors into school as much as possible. We do include one educational visit that requires a coach and this is highlighted below to allow families to plan.
Details of each trip will be emailed out nearer the time with more detailed information along with requests for payment donation.
Autumn Term – Space: The Final Frontier
Trip to the Observatory, Herstmonceux
During this trip, we will participate in a telescope tour and find out about ‘what’s out there’! We will complete a rocket workshop and try to develop our bridge building skills! Throughout the day, children will have unlimited access to the indoor and outdoor hands-on exhibits!
