Year 5&6

FoF Update 3/7/26

Thank you to everyone who has supported the Summer Fair.

When we pool our skills and resources together, we can make fabulous things happen!

Review of 2025-26 Bake Sales:

Each year, we invite each phase group to host a bake sale once every term. We’ve seen some absolutely stunning bakes and learned that children are keen to order fruit too! The Early Years bake sale on Monday was the final one for the school year, and it raised a decent £50.55, bringing our total for the year to £736.61.

Friends of Fishergate has rounded that up to an exciting £1,000! Each phase group has been given £250 to use as they choose, and the spending has really varied. One group invited a geology expert to enrich their learning, while another opted for maximum fun with a bouncy castle. Another group decided to enhance their arts and crafts offerings for reward time with enticing new supplies.

Whether you bake, buy or help run a stall, your support makes a big difference to the children’s experiences in school. Thank you for your amazing help this year! Friends of Fishergate

Bodhi’s first assembly with Y5/6

Hello everyone!

It’s Bodhi here with my weekly update. This week I went to my very first Year 5/6 assembly. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but one of my lovely Year 5 friends sat beside me the whole time to help me feel calm and confident. I tried my best to listen carefully and sit nicely—although I might have wagged my tail a bit too loudly!

Tina said she thinks the children were paying more attention to me than to her, but I promise I wasn’t trying to steal the show. I just can’t help being adorable.

I’m looking forward to more adventures around school next week. Until then—big wags and happy paws!Bodhi
