Routines and Information

• Homework will be set on a Wednesday and handed in the following Monday.
• Spellings form part of the homework. These will be set with the homework on a Wednesday and tested the following Wednesday. Your child should practice their spellings across the week.
• Reading is a really important part of every child's learning and in addition to the guided reading and 1-2-1 reading the children do in school every week, they should read at home as well.  Please try to encourage your child to read independently or to an adult throughout the week.
