We have decided to set you another budgeting task this week as you all seemed to really enjoy planning your own holiday.

So this time, we are staying at home but you will need to plan activities to keep all of the family entertained.

Your family will have 2 adults and 2 children (you can decide ages and boys or girls).

You will have a budget of £100 to keep the family entertained for 2 weeks of the Summer holidays.

Research all the lovely places you can visit and you will need to budget for cost of entry, food, drinks and any extras e.g. the gift shop.

You could visit:

• Chester zoo
• Park hall farm
• Hoo farm
• Telford town park
• Telford ice rink
• Anywhere else you love to visit!

We hope you have lots of fun budgeting for a fun summer and hopefully some of these places will open soon so we can visit!

We hope you have all had a fantastic half term and have enjoyed some lovely sunshine.

This weeks task is to complete the following Talk for Writing booklet. Your teacher’s have already made the charity donation so parents don’t need to do this as well.

When you have completed the booklet, we would love to see your information texts about your own creatures. Remember to email them to us at year5team@stgeorgesschool.org.uk.

Have fun, Year 5!

Morning all,

This half term, we will be learning all about the Stone, Bronze and Iron ages.

Your job is to find out all you can about these times in History and present your project however you wish.

We were so impressed with your Ancient Greeks projects, see if you can be just as amazing with this one!

You could make:

• A model
• A piece of art
• A PPT
• A poster
• An information booklet or anything else you fancy doing!

Remember to please email them to us so we can see the fantastic work you have done and also enter you into the competition. We will be awarding prizes for the best projects. You will have 3 weeks to complete your project.

Please make sure you have emailed it to us by Friday 12th June at 1pm. The year 5 email address is year5team@stgeorgesschool.org.uk.

Good luck and happy researching, year 5!

Hi everyone 🙂

We have a little challenge for you all this week to do a little bit of problem solving and plan your own family holiday. We use maths all the time in our day to day lives and it is very important to learn the important skills of budgeting so you have everything you need.

So here is what you need to do.

Your challenge is to ‘book’ a holiday for 2 adults and 2 children to anywhere you wish to go during the summer holidays.

You will need to record the name of destination, name & cost of hotel/accommodation, flight cost & details (airline, times & flight numbers).

You must think about the following criteria and stay within your budget.

Your budget is £2500 for flights, accommodation & food.

Criteria:

• 2 adults and 2 children (below the age of 12), so you will need a family room.
• 7 nights
• Transfers (getting to and from the airport to your accommodation).
• Baggage (2 suitcases for your family)
• Consider food and spending money in your budget too.

Below are some holiday companies websites to get you started.

Holiday companies

• TUI
• Thomas Cook
• Jet2
• On the beach
• Travelsupermarket

Have lots of fun Year 5, we hope you enjoy ‘booking’ your own holiday! (Please don’t really book, this is a fun activity to give you some practise at real life budgeting!)
