Welcome to Snow Leopards!

Welcome to Class 5 Snow Leopards!

Welcome to Class 5 Snow Leopards at Woodlea Junior School! 🐆 We are excited to begin our penultimate year at Woodlea, a year full of fantastic opportunities, exciting adventures and wonderful learning experiences. Together, we will continue to develop our knowledge, build confidence, challenge ourselves and grow as learners, friends and individuals.

In Autumn 1, our English lessons will take us back in time as we explore the epic Anglo-Saxon tale of Beowulf, complementing our topic work on the Vikings. In Science, we will be reaching for the stars as we explore the fascinating world of space through the Developing Experts curriculum. In Maths, we use Maths — No Problem! to develop our mathematical skills, deepen our understanding and become confident, independent problem-solvers.

In Autumn 2, we will journey into Victorian Britain through our English text, Oliver, building our understanding of life in the past alongside our History topic on the Victorians. Our creative talents will shine in Art as we experiment with lino printing to design and make our own Christmas cards. In Design and Technology, we will put our practical skills to the test by designing and creating a Viking money holder.

There is so much to look forward to this year! We are ready to embrace every challenge, celebrate our successes and make fantastic memories together. As Snow Leopards, we will show resilience, curiosity, kindness and determination as we make the most of this exciting chapter in our Woodlea journey. Let’s make it a brilliant year of learning, growing and achieving together!
