Holy Child Primary School
Sharing, Caring and Learning
Welcome
P5a
Welcome to P5A with Mrs McNeill 2025-26
This year we are very lucky to have a PGCE student with us in P5A. Mr Guinness will be working with the class throughout the year; both as a classroom assistant but also teaching lessons throughout the year. He is really looking forward to teaching the class.
This half term we will be focusing on settling back to school and establishing new class routines.
Our topic for World Around Us is “Mighty Me” and we will be finding out about the body, our skeletons and our body organs. We will be carrying out practical investigations to find out more about this topic.
In Literacy, we will be emphasising the use of capital letters and full stops where appropriate. We will be writing recounts in chronological order using past tense verbs. In reading we will be emphasising of talking about the story, the setting the characters and predicting what might happen in the story. In our phonic work, we will be revising the single letter sounds and developing knowledge of different digraphs.
I will keep you updated with the activities going on in Primary five by adding photographs of the great work we are doing and having great fun in class.
Having fun finding information about our classmates.
