Mrs Keightley

I love reading and  love anything craft based, though I'll be the first to admit that drawing is not my strong point!  

I have lots of experience working with this year group, and I always look forward to the fun, curiosity and brilliant ideas they bring to the classroom.

My favourite subject is History, and we’re going to have a fantastic time exploring the Romans together. Later in the year, we’ll also dive into the history of our local area, discovering how the past has shaped the world we live in today.

We have some exciting trips planned, including a visit to Papplewick Pumping Station, a hands-on Partake Roman workshop day, and a trip to the Veolia Recycling Plant as part of our environment project (it’s a great trip and much better than it sounds—I promise!).

I also love teaching English, especially writing, and we’ll be studying some wonderful books that will inspire our work throughout the year.

I can’t wait for all the learning, creativity and adventures ahead in Year 5!
