Transition to Year 5

Welcome!

It’s lovely to meet you all, my name is Miss Brighton and I am the SENCO here at Westacre. Mrs MacPherson also works with me.

One very important part of my job is to help you to settle in to Year 5 at Westacre and to make sure that you have all the support you need to achieve your very best. I have already been in contact with your teachers so that we can work together, with you and your families, to find the best ways to support you as you move up to Middle School.

Here at Westacre, we have so many different ways of supporting you. We have a fantastic pastoral team who are always there to talk to if you need to, break and lunch clubs, intervention groups and lots of brilliant resources in our classrooms to help you with your learning.

We have put together some photographs of the school so that you can have a little sneaky peak at what to expect when you come to us.

We are really looking forward to meeting you and getting to know you more. I have a pet cat called Henry and I like to play the drums and listen to music. Mrs MacPherson also has a cat called Patches and likes sewing and gardening. Do you have any pets? What do you like to do?
