About Us ~ Year 5

Our Year 5 class only has fifteen students in it. We usually get on really well, but with such a small group we can get on each others nerves at times and there is just nowhere to hide. We always seem to be able to work things out and we try to always leave each day being happy with each other. We are always excited about coming to school and we love to learn.

Here is a poem one of the students in our class wrote about each person.

There’s a group of kids in a class of fifteen,
Lead by their teacher who is kind and never mean.
In his free time Dom likes to play ball,
And for her age Maggie is fairly tall.
Will collects crystals, he’s shown us a few,
And finger-knitting is something that Shivani likes to do.
Phoebe likes to sing and she’s pretty good.
Benjamin would be a rock star if he could.
Tristan does Aikido, it keeps him fit,
Jasmine is fun, never boring one bit.
Adrian enjoys basketball which is really cool.
And Tiffany feels right at home in the pool.
Soccer’s a game that Shamus likes to play.
And if Clare could she’d read books all day.
Kayla can play the violin,
And in almost every sport Alex will win.
At maths and science Liam’s a wiz.
This is our class and that is our biz!

We have been in the same room for two years, so it feels like home. We have two teachers who are both really nice to us. In our lunch breaks we really love to play soccer and handball. Others like to read and draw.

We have computers and an interactive whiteboard in our class. We learn Japanese, dance, art and drama from specialist teachers.
