Year 5

Welcome to Year 5, another year of learning and excitement at Chilwell Croft Academy. This year, our pupils will again be exposed to a wide range of learning experiences and a broad and balanced curriculum.  

We will continue to learn and develop key skills in reading, writing and mathematics but also explore a wide range of topics from ‘Earth and Space’ in science to ‘Rome and Byzantium’ in history and geography. 

Our pupils will engage with amazing opportunities; from excellent cricket sessions, engaging Mandarin lessons to challenging themselves at Go Ape. Our students will have the opportunity to explore and showcase all their talents. 

We also have structured RE and Computing weeks where the children engage with these subject areas every afternoon for a whole designated week. As well as, opportunities to explore new ideas with the interactive, audio experience of Now Press Play.  

Year 5 is always an exciting time, as we build towards life in Year 6, the end of primary school and prepare our students for the wider world through our Life Education lessons.
