Homework

Is set on a Friday and needs to be completed by Wednesday morning (either on spag.com, maths shed or maths.co.uk) plus learning weekly spellings, tables and 4 home reads per week.

Failing to complete online homework means the children will miss a lunchtime to complete it.

 

Please remember that children will need to bring their PE kits in from the first day back to school and these remain in school until half term. Also please remember that long hair needs to be tied back and children must have earrings removed - NO other jewellery should be worn to school.
