Dear parents,

As you are now well aware, school has had to close as a result of Covid 19.

We strongly recommend that children continue to complete school work and daily homework tasks in as normal a way as possible. 


Homework would take the usual format. For example:

Monday:

  • Reading
  • Spellings-ABC order
  • Literacy Day 93
  • MA Section 2, Test 12, Part A
  • Mental maths label
  • Individual spellings/mental maths labels are in diaries for the next few weeks.
