Well done for another amazing week! You all showed great enthusiasm in the Explorer Dome and we hope you have been completely inspired to learn more about our solar system, not only in our Science lessons, but also with your own research at home! 

Maths

This week, we have begun our unit on ‘Shape’ and have been identifying and measuring different sizes of angles, using a protractor.

KS2 Football friendly V Woolacombe

The first day of the summer term started with a bang as the Southmead football teams hosted Woolacombe for a friendly game. The sun was shining, the pitches were bustling with spectators and Southmead demonstrated utter resilience. 

It didn’t go their way, for either U9s or U11s, yet their perseverance and teamwork are to be commended. Well done boys, a fantastic afternoon of football and fun. We will get them next time! 

Parents/carers: If you have any questions, queries or comments about Year 5, please email the school office on: admin@southmead.devon.sch.uk

They will forward this information to the correct member of staff who will then be able to get back to you regarding your query.

This year, we will be encouraging the children to become independent learners.

We will be placing home learning here on the Year 5 page of the school website. Any resources necessary to complete the tasks will be printed out and placed in each child's green home learning book. Each week there will be a Maths task and a writing or topic task (alongside times tables and reading). Home learning will be uploaded here on Fridays and is due to be handed in at school on the following Wednesday.

Home learning books should be brought back in to school every Wednesday so that we can see your wonderful work!
