Reminders
Outdoor PE is on a Tuesday and indoor PE is on a Friday.
Year 5 are expected to read at least 5 times a week. Reading records are checked by a member of staff in Chestnut Class every Friday to tally points. Reading at least 5 times a week means that you will get a raffle ticket towards the class jar for a chance to win a book from the vending machine!
Please remember to bring a water bottle and a healthy snack for break time with you to school every day.
Homework is uploaded onto DB Primary every Friday at 4pm and needs to be completed by the following Thursday at 5pm.
Please log on to TTRockstars to practise your times tables daily.
