PE Days

Our timetabled PE days are  Tuesday for indoor/outdoor and Wednesday for swimmingHowever, please ensure that your child’s PE kit is in school every day as these days can be subject to change at short notice.

 

Homework 

Reading - Children are sent home with a reading book daily. We ask that parents and carers read regularly (ideally daily) with their children. If you read with your child at home please place a note in your child's reading record so they can be rewarded accordingly.

 Spotlight spellings - Spotlight spellings are individual spelling spotted by teachers in your child's work. These spellings form a target list of spellings at the front of your child's English book which the children practice learning both at school and home. The children write down between 5-10 spellings each week in their own orange homework books. These homework books are sent home on a Thursday and should be returned by the following Monday. 

If you have any queries regarding your child's homework or if there is a reason why your child has been unable to complete their homework, please speak with their class teacher in the first instances who will be able to advise and support.
