Year 5

Welcome to Year 5.

We have two classes in our year group, they are called 5 Helen Sharman and 5 Joseph Priestley.

The classes have been named after a famous Yorkshire Astronaut and Chemist.

Helen Sharman was born in 1963, in Sheffield, South Yorkshire.

She was the first British astronaut in space and the first Western European woman in space. Her first mission lasted 8 days and she conducted medical and agricultural tests.

Joseph Priestley was born in 1733, in Birstall, West Yorkshire.

The world recalls Priestley best as the man who discovered oxygen, the active ingredient in our planet's atmosphere.

The adults working in Year 5 are:

Miss Haughin, Mr Akhtar, Mr Maroof and Ms Khan.
