New Bewerley Community School

Year 5

Children in Year 5 are in Upper Key Stage 2 - the final part of their journey through Primary School! We continue to develop key skills and learn about new and exciting topics such as the Victorians and Ancient Greeks.

5 Hepworth  

In 5 Hepworth our class teacher is Miss Ward and we also work with Mrs Bousfield. We are supported in our learning by various members of the UKS2 team. 

Our class is named after Barbara Hepworth who was a famous artist who was born and studied in West Yorkshire, before moving to St Ives in Cornwall during World War II. Hepworth was inspired by modernist art from across Europe and was most famous for her sculptures, big and small, which were often inspired by nature, had interesting holes in them and were placed outside in a variety of settings. 

Miss Ward is especially looking forward to some of the fantastic novels we will read this year, such as Kensukes Kingdom and Wild Boy. We will be working hard to consolidate and build on prior learning, such as times tables, and also devloping a range of formal, informal and mental methods to complete calculations using the four operations. 

5 Johanesson 

In 5 Johanesson, our class teacher is Miss Hurley and we also work with Mrs Bousfield. We are supported in our learning by various members of the UKS2 team.
