All About Me!

Hi, I am Mrs Baxter and I will be the class teacher for Bouman Class. Year 5 has got lots of exciting trips, visitors, projects and WOW moments. You have such an exciting curriculum to look forward to and lots of shared learning, outside activities, clubs and trips in store!

Over the last few years, I have discovered a love of paddle boarding but I’m definitely still in need of some practice! I enjoy being active and creative; I especially love baking sweet treats to share with others! When I’m not in school I spend my time at the beach with my son Finley and throwing a frisbee for my two dogs, Max and Milo!

All about me! Miss Whitehouse

Hello, I’m Miss Whitehouse and I will be teaching year 5 on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursday.

I am really looking forward to the year ahead and we have got lots of exciting trips, visitors, projects and WOW moments lined up for you all. And we can’t forget about the much anticipated year 5 residential! Bouman class and Johnson class will work closely together with our projects and there will be lots of opportunities for collaborative learning linking to our STEAM curriculum.

Here are a few facts about me:

Favourite colour: Green
Favourite animal: Gorilla
Favourite beach: Little Fistral
Favourite book: Kensuke’s Kingdom
Favourite subjects: Maths and DT

Fun Fact: When I was in primary school I HATED Maths. I then had a great teacher and now it is my favourite subject to teach. I like to make every lesson fun and engaging so that the children I teach will never dislike Maths like I once did.

I look forward to welcoming you to Bouman class!
