Macaw
Welcome to Year 5 - Macaw!
It is without doubt that year 5 is indeed a very exciting place to be, where else could you travel into space, be transformed to idillic countryside locations, produce beautiful art work of your environment, see an Aztec sacrifice, program your own animation and be back in time for homemade biscuits for tea and a bit of times table practice?!In Macaw class you will be guided on this journey by Mr Evans and Miss Westlake but of course which direction it takes is often up to you.
