For Christmas this year, staff will be supporting Derian House and making a donation on behalf of each class. Derian House are a fantastic charity and one that means a lot to our school.
 

Homework

Reading - Reading is one of the most important skills for children to master as it unlocks their imagination and allows them to access the rest of the curriculum. Please read with your child every night. Remember to ask questions as this will improve key reading skills, such as retrieval and inference. Children should also have their school reading books in school every day so that an adult can read with them.

 

Spellings - Although there are no spellings to learn over christmas, there are still lots of games available on spelling shed. We encourage children to carry on practising spellings over the holidays so they are ready to continue their learning in January.

          Times tables - Times tables are a vital skill, which will be used throughout the year and through the rest of the childrens school journeys and lives. In order to prepare every child as well as we can, we ask that children log in to times table rockstars as many days as possible each week. On there, the children can practise all of their times tables by playing different games.
