Year 5- Mrs Sommerville

This year, every class are named after a class champion. Throughout the Year the children will learn about their class champion and deliver a special Collective Worship all about what makes them special. By the end of the year the aim is that all of our children know about 6 diverse and amazing champions who make a difference to our world. 

Year Five’s class champion for 2023-2024 is Sir David Attenborough.

A national treasure who needs no introduction; beloved by millions around the world, Sir David Attenborough is an inspirational broadcaster, presenter and conservationist. He first worked as a producer in the early 1950s and began to present in 1954 on Zoo Quest. Even though he is in his 90s, he continues to present and narrate natural history documentaries, such as Frozen Planet II, The Green Planet and Dynasties II for the BBC and Prehistoric Planet for Apple TV. The longevity of his career is remarkable.
