Emmaus (Y5)

Welcome to Emmaus Class

The teachers are Miss Ray and Mrs Rafferty.

There’s a lot to look forward to with an exciting and broad curriculum. We aim for our puplis to develop a strong sense of independence with a clear view on making positive choices so that Y4/5 is a time filled with both enjoyment and challenge.

We follow the ‘Come and See’ RE programme to help guide the children on their faith journey.

We continue to ensure that the year 5 children have access to the same opportunities as the year 5 children in Damascus class and that the year 4 children have access to the same opportunities as the year 4 children in Jericho class by liaising closely with Miss Willsher and Mrs Judson.

We are always grateful for your help. Please let us know if you are able to come in and hear readers.

Please don’t hesitate to come and speak to us if you have any queries or concerns especially if you see us on the playground before or after school -that is the perfect opportunity to talk.

Homework

Reading
We encourage the children to read 5 times a night and record their reading in their reading records. We also run class reading challenges and book bingo to encourage their reading.
