Glanvill Class is home to Year 5 and to Mrs Farrow, our teacher. Mrs Rice is our Teaching Assistant and she is with us Monday to Thursday. 

In Glanvill, our learning is challenging, energetic and fun, with a strong focus on being creative and making connections across curriculums and topics. We support children in developing their skills and understanding and encourage independent thinking.

Together we study two whole class novels each half-term linked to our termly topics. We also have a class book that we listen to during story time.

In Glanvill, we love learning and our classroom is a vibrant and exciting environment in which to spend our days. We aim for all children to feel safe and happy, as well as supporting them to become curious and independent learners.
