Welcome to Kingfisher Class!

We are a mixed Year 5 and Year 6 class. Our teacher is Mrs Goodall and our Teaching Assistant is Miss Roberts. Mrs Hains also supports in our class.

In the afternoons, we are joined by Starling Class (Year3/4) to do our learning. 

We are looking forward to the year ahead and our inspiring topics we are going to learn about. Please take time to read our Medium Term Plan and take a look at our school Facebook page for the wonderful learning taking place in school!

Classroom

Our classroom is well-organised, inviting and is at the heart of an inclusive learning environment. The children in Kingfisher Class progress throughout the year and become more independent as their time in Year 5 progresses, to prepare them for Year 6 and for their SATS. We care deeply about children’s mental health and therefore we instil a positive growth mindset for all our children. 

P.E

In Kingfisher Class, PE is on a Thursday afternoon. During the Spring term, the children attend swimming lessons at Carn Brea.. PE kits are to be worn into school on PE days.

Homework

We will assign homework later in the school year and details of this will be updated. For now, please ensure you are listening to your child reading and giving them access to Times Tables Rockstars a few times a week.

Reading and TTRS

Reading is a crucial part of learning and i ssupported through daily reading lessons in school as well as readin gto adults. Reading at home will support your child's learning and this should be recorded in their Reading Record. Knowing your times tables by heart allows more cognitive capacity to solve maths problems. Using Times Tables Rockstars is a great way to keep times tables fresh in your memory. 

We are looking forward to working with you and your children. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email hello@cusgarne.org or telephone 01872 863563.
