Welcome: Oak Class is a mixed Year 5 and 6 class. We are a class of 30 friendly and creative children. We work hard so that we can all believe, achieve, succeed and grow together. In our class there are children from many different countries with lots of different interests and hobbies. In Oak class we work individually and together to create a happy atmosphere to learn.

Our Usual Class Timetable:

PE: Oak class have PE on each Monday afternoon. It is essential that all children remember to bring a full PE kit to school on this day. This kit needs to contain a pair of shorts or jogging bottoms as well as a t-shirt and appropriate footwear. Please remember that PE will sometimes take place outside and so clothing and footwear needs to be appropriate for this.

Homework: Oak class will receive their Maths and English homework each Friday. Completed homework must be returned to school on the following Wednesday. Additionally, children will receive spellings to learn on a Friday. These spellings will then be tested on the following Friday. Each fortnight children will also bring home times tables to learn.

Reading: Children are expected to read at home on a regular basis as this is essential for children to be able to make expected progress. Children should read (either to an adult or to themselves) and must have their reading record signed by an adult. Children must have their reading book in school every day.

Music: All children who have additional music lessons must ensure that their instrument is in school on the relevant day. (Thursday or Friday)

Swimming (year 5’s only) Year 5 children will attend swimming sessions in the Summer Term. They must bring to school a swimming kit (swimming shorts for boys and a swimming costume for girls) as well as a towel.
