Week beginning 3rd November 2025
Year 5 Blog
This week was the first week back of Autumn 2 and it was Stroud Literacy festival! We had an Author visit; Sian Hughes, who did some workshops with us. Her books are about a girl who is a robber who hired a cat to help her. The title of the book was "Wanted: Cat!"
As part of Stroud Literacy lesson, we had a live workshop with Louie Stowell who wrote books about Loki. She guided us about how she illustrated her books and we got to draw Loki too! We also did some acting about what it would be like for Loki coming to Earth as a kid instead of an Ancient Norse God.
In gardening, we had a huge leaf collecting push as we need them for the summer holidays and to protect the beds over the winter. We split into teams and collected leaves from all around the school! We filled 13 bags! Another group did some weeding at the front of the school so it can keep looking really smart!
We have been preparing for 11th November Remembrance as well. We hope you will join us for the Remembrance ceremony.
See you next week for another jam packed week!
