Laravel 5 Models/Classes not found

Question

I'm struggling to use models and classes in Laravel 5 'FatalErrorException' class "name" not found.

Take the User class as standard under the App/ folder, it will only work as $user = App\User::where... or I can go 'use App/User'... Rather than just User::where. How can I get around this back to L4 where it just worked?

Secondly I came to Session::get standard Laravel Class, same error class 'Session' not found.

Unable to find a solution after 4 hours I'm resorting to asking the question... Thanks.

namespace doesn't forces that directory. you put that file into such folder that's why it maps the path such. — itachi

Further to this I have created a model file called Site.php which holds several classes i.e. class Testimonials extends Model {}. In a controller where I have use App/Site it won't load my Testimonial::getRandom function... says class not found!? — sprintcar78a
