Physical Education (PE)
Our PE days are every Wednesday and Friday.
Your child needs to come into school wearing their PE kit, which consists of a plain T-shirt, plain joggers/shorts and a plain jumper. Trainers are also allowed. Your child will stay in their PE kit for the whole day.
Homework
Homework will be set every Friday, and will consist of two Mathletics tasks, a set of spelling words on Spelling Shed and TTRockstars. Please return the homework the following Thursday, so it can be checked.
Reading and Reading Records
Reading is such an important part of your child's development, so please prioritise this task. We expect your child to read every day. Your child's reading record must be signed by an adult and brought into school every day to be stamped.
Our Class Rewards
We have many rewards in Beech Class, which consist of:
Class dojo points, house points, stickers, and certificates every Friday.
