We have designed what we will put on them […]
Sports and Fun Day!
/1 Comment/in Year 5 /by Margaret JoyceWhat an exciting week at Pope Paul School!

Summer 2 Week 1
/0 Comments/in Year 5 /by Margaret JoyceOur first week back was certainly a scorcher! I hope you all enjoyed the lovely weather over the half term. In maths this week, we have been learning about angles. We have been identifying, acute, obtuse, reflex, right and straight angles and ordering them. Year 5 used this knowledge to make some wonderful angle pictures. […]
Summer 1 Week 7
/0 Comments/in Year 5 /by Margaret JoyceOur final week of the half term saw us taking part in Spirituality Week. It was wonderful to spend time in the presence of God and reflect on the message of hope. One of the main highlights was sharing prayers with Year 1. I was incredibly proud of how Year 5 interacted with the younger […]

Year 5 then write diary entries in role as one of Jesus’ followers telling how it felt to be filled with the Holy Spirit. We have come a long way with our division this week and can now express remainders as […]
