Important information: 

Homework is given out on Fridays and returned the following Friday. This will consist of maths and English, and will be mix of book work and online tasks. 

Spellings and times tables are expected to be practised regularly over the week. We take home a new set of spellings every Monday, to learn for our test each Friday. Sometimes, we will be learning a more complex spelling rule and get two weeks to practise, instead of one. 

We take home a reading book on Monday and return it on Fridays. 

P.E. is on a Thursday  – we will wear our PE kit to school every Tuesday. 

If your child is having a school lunch please ensure that payment is now done through our online payment service.
