My name is Miss Irwin-Holland and I have the great pleasure of teaching Year Five. I am looking forward to an exciting year of learning with the children supported by Mrs Withers and Mr Jones. Mrs Smith will also be teaching Year Five every Monday afternoon.
On this page you will find lots of important information and photographs of the exciting things that we will get up to in class. It will also be updated regularly with class news and links to websites that you may find helpful to support your child's learning.
Should you have any questions, worries or concerns, please do not hesitate to come in and see me or email me a.irwin@stbridgetscps.co.uk
I look forward to working in partnership with you to help your child achieve their best.

Year Five will have P.E every Tuesday and Wednesday. Children should come to school in the correct PE uniform. Plain white t-shirt/polo, plain black leggings, joggers or shorts, plain black jacket/school jumper (no logos on PE uniform). Children must also take their earrings out to participate in the lesson. If your child is unable to remove their earrings themselves, please ensure this is done before the start of school.

For spelling we will continue to to send worksheets home weekly. These will focus on spelling rules and patterns as well as covering statutory spellings for Year 5/6. These words should be practice at home and returned to class by Friday. Your child's spelling test from the previoud week will be sent home wih their new spellings for them to revise any words they got wrong.
