Core Texts

Homework

In the coming weeks we will begin to set homework.

Your child will change their phonics book on a Monday ONLY at the start of the day. They will not need to change them at any other time.

Important information

Don’t forget, that every day the children need: – a re-fillable water bottle, book bag to hold their reading record, spelling book and reading book and their lunch box (if they are not having school dinners).  We have had lots of water bottle spillages from bottles that have lids that need to be completely removed in order to drink from them. If possible, could water bottles have a lid that remains attached for drinking.
