Welcome to Glanvill Class!

Glanvill Class is home to Year 5 and to Mr Foster, our teacher.

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 at least one, and sometimes two, whole class novels each half term linked to our termly topic.

In Glanvill, we love learning and our classroom is a vibrant and exciting environment in which to spend our days.

Our Learning Journey

This term we are exploring the Anglo-Saxon invasion and settlement of Britain, the geography of both their origin states and the areas of the UK they colonized and the legacy of the Anglo-Saxons, including place names, culture, art and language. 

As part of our learning we will be exploring the layout of Anglo-Saxon villages and examine land-use both by them and other societies in the UK. This will also include perspective and shading sketching in Art.
