Welcome to Year 5!

During the year, the children will have the opportunity to engage in creative and independent learning, whilst working independently and as a part of a team. During the year, Year 5 have the opportunity to experience being away from home at Robinwood, learning various skills and enabling them to push themselves out of their comfort zones by trying new things.

Towards the end of the year, Year 5 take to the road and learn all about road safety when riding a bike in ‘Bikeability’. They will take part in numerous sessions in how to stay safe.  (Our cycle shelter within the school grounds is available for our Year 6 children to use once they have passed their Bikeability Training in Year 5)
