Homework

We would be delighted if the children read for 10 minutes each night.

Each week the children will bring home a set of spellings to practise linked to their phonics teaching.  The weekly spell check is on a Friday morning. 

On a Friday the children will bring home either a Maths or English homework task.  Homework should be returned to school by Wednesday.  

 

Look what we have been up to!
