Home Learning
Our Homework is set on Fridays but is due in on Thursdays.
Our Home learning is sent home in children's Home Learning books or on Google Classroom, and the children can choose which they find best to hand in their homework. Occasionally, Mathletics is also used for children to work on their Maths homework.
Reading as an essential part of your time in primary school. Therefore, we ask that all children read for 20 minutes, at least 3 times a week. This will help build their confidence, improve their vocabulary knowledge and help expand their own imaginations. This can be a range of reading sources, such as newspapers, magazines, websites or even things on signs and in shop windows.
Supporting Reading at Home
See below the questions you can ask your child when they are reading with you.
Lunch Time Prayer
God our Father,
Lord and saviour

And all who share with us today
