“Each of you should use whatever gift he has received to serve others” 1 Peter Ch4 vs10

Home Learning

For the first two weeks of term pupils should complete daily reading with an adult, recording what they have read in their red reading diaries. Red reading diaries and reading books should be brought into school every day. In addition, pupils should learn their weekly spellings and number facts.

Home learning expectations for the rest of the year will be shared with parents at our Parent Information evenings in September.

Additional Resources

We’ve listed a number of resources that may support you and your child in their home learning tasks.
