Good Morning Year 5!

Welcome to your Easter Break, I bet you all are ready for some rest and relaxation. Since Christmas you have worked really hard, both at school and at home, making your teachers and family extremely proud of you. Well done!

Although this holiday may come with some disappointments of missed holidays or feelings of frustration about not being able to see your friends and family, try not to let it get you down. Remember to try and stay positive (even when it’s tricky) and think about the wide range of things you can do at home to keep you entertained.

We know that it can be tricky to think of things to do when you’re stuck at home so we wanted to help. We have found some activities that you might like to do at home for fun. Below we have listed some of the different ideas of activities that could be fun to do throughout the holiday. We will give you some ideas today, and then some more next Tuesday. This will replace the daily jobs we will set you. You do not have to complete them, but it is completely up to you whether you want to complete them or not.

If you have a great activity idea that you would like to share with other Year 5 children, just send us the details in an email to year5@stmarksce.org.uk and we will try to add it to our webpage. We would also love to see what you get up to, so please get in touch and share with us.

At the very bottom of this webpage, there is a leaflet linking to wellbeing, which you or your parents might want to take a look at at some point.

Well done to those children who contributed to our fantastic victory against the Year 4s on TT Rockstars. There were 22 children who helped towards our fantastic victory – so a massive thank you to those children.

Have a great day today and we all hope this is the start of a very happy Easter holiday for you and your families.

  1. Baking – If you have the ingredients, why not have a go at baking an Easter Cake, some pancakes or the well loved cornflake cakes.
  2. Design your own egg – Draw an egg on paper or decorate a hard boiled egg using coloured pens.
  3. Egg and Spoon Race – Why not use hard boiled eggs or Easter eggs to have an egg and spoon race.
  4. Making an Easter card – Why not then send it to a family or an old peoples home. Cards are a good way to make people smile.
  5. Have an Easter Egg Hunt – If you don’t have Easter Eggs, why not draw some and then hide them around the house and garden for you or your family to find. 
  6. Set up an obstacle course – In your home or garden, why not create an obstacle course and time yourself and your family and see who can get the quickest time
  7. Create some Eater jokes
  8. Create your own Easter game – This could be a board game or an outside game to play with your family.
  9. Crack the Easter Code Breaker – See document attached below
