Class teacher :Mrs J Clark ( Deputy Head)
Teaching Assistant: Mr A Scholes.
Welcome to Class 5. We are a mixed Year 5/6 class. The children work very hard and we would like to share some of the interesting and exciting activities that we do in school. We are becoming young adults and try to work towards achieving respect, responsibility and challenge. We are now old enough to start thinking about what contribution we can make to the community and the wider world. We hope you enjoy looking at our work.
