Re-opening for more pupils up-date 22.5.20

Following scientific evidence and through our own risk assessments, St George’s will not open to reception children as planned on 3rd June and it is unlikely nursery will start on 8th June. It is important to wait to see what guidance we will now be given nationally and locally. We do not want to rush this decision as everyone’s safety is vital. We will keep you all updated when we know more. We will continue to provide childcare for key worker families. Thank you for your patience

We hope that you are all keeping up with your reading and enjoying lots of different books!

Remember, you could be reading many different text types, both onscreen or paper copies. Why not try reading a selection of texts such as: newspaper articles, recipes, instructions, fact books, poems, stories, biographies/ autobiographies?

Science and Geography

Hi Year 5,

It’s been a while since we studied Earth and Space in Science. I wonder how much you can remember? Have a look at the task below to find out!

Science Earth and Space

This Geography task will help you learn about time zones. It can be quite tricky to understand, so send your work in to the Year 5 email when you complete it. We’re waiting to be impressed!
