Welcome to Class 5
Hello and welcome to Class 5! My name is Caitlynn Downer and I am Class 5’s teacher. I have been teaching at Milverton for the last two years and have previously taught at other schools across Somerset.
The children will have the wonderful opportunity to be taught by Mrs Brierley on a Tuesday afternoon. We also work closely with the Class 6 team on our quest learning and to ensure that the children have an engaging experience across subjects during the year.
Year 5 is an exciting time for children, especially with their first opportunity to experience a residential trip to Kilve Court in the summer term. The curriculum expectations increase in Year 5, as children enter Upper Key Stage 2, but they continue to build upon their skills and we ensure children progress at their own pace. Class 5 is a place where children can be safe, happy and confident individuals. The classroom reflects the school ethos by caring for and respecting each other, aspiring to do our best, and working as a team to develop a sense of belonging.
The partnership between home and school is important to support children’s progression academically, socially and emotionally. We aim to keep an open dialogue with parents to ensure children are happy and confident in Year 5. You can find the appropriate email addresses below.
I look forward to what this new school year brings!
