Welcome to Year 5 2025-2026!
Year 5 Homework
Your child will be given weekly spelling homework. They will have a weekly talk homework to complete with you, this will support their weekly 'Write to the top' independent writing lesson. In Year 5, children will also bring home CGP books to complete Maths and Grammar homework, this will be set by the Teacher. You will recieve a school Ping with the page numbers and the children will also record these each week. At St George's Primary school, children read at home five times a week and in Year 5 we kindly ask that you sign your child's reading diary to show that they have met this.
Reading in Year 5
The expectation is that you read with
your child a minimum of 5 times each week and
record this into their reading records. Each week
we will count the number of ‘Home Reads’
recorded in your child’s reading record.
The children must have their reading records and
books in school every day ready to read to an
adult. The children take part in a reading session
every day where they will either be reading
independently, in a group or 1:1 with an adult.
P.E in Year 5
Please continue to send your child into school
already dressed in their PE kits on PE days. The
children must be dressed appropriately for the
weather as PE sessions will continue to be outside
as much as possible! Earrings are not permitted for
PE sessions and they cannot be covered with sports
tape. Please see our PE uniform policy online.
P.E. Days:
Class 16 – Monday and Friday
