Hi there,
Well.. we did it! We made it to the end of the year! The children should be so proud of how hard they have worked and the wonderful progress that each of them have made. It has been an absolute pleasure to teach Year 5 Oak for my final year at Rufford and I wish the children all the best for their Year 6 journeys.
We've still had a very busy final week. The children have been finishing off their 'Volume and Capacity' unit of work in maths. In English, they've been building upon key comprehension and grammar skills. It's been the perfect weather for P.E. and I am so impressed with how far the children have come on with their rounders skills.
The disco (on Wednesday) was a blast. It was great to see so many children together having fun, and such a great way to celebrate what has been quite a different year!
On Tuesday, the children took home a letter regarding applying for a secondary school place. It is really important for parents/carers to read this letter and prepare for the online application (which opens on August 1st). Click here to access the letter electronically.
I would like to say a huge thank to all of Oak Tree's parents/carers for their ongoing support throughout this year. I have really enjoyed getting to know all of you and your families and wish you all the best for the future.
It has been tough to say goodbye to Year 5 Oak today, but I know that they are so ready for a well-deserved break and for their new chapter to begin in September. They are definitely ready for the exciting challenges that Year 6 will bring and I know that they will all make lots of great progress.
Thank you again for the lovely gifts and cards that the children and parents/carers have so kindly given to me this week - I will really cherish the cards... and enjoy the gifts!
Best wishes. Stay safe and have a wonderful summer
Over and out.
Miss Johansson :)
