Physical Education (PE)
Our PE days are every Monday and Friday.
Your child needs to come into school wearing their PE kit, which consists of a plain t-shirt in their house colours, plain black 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 Mathletics tasks, Read Theory, a set of spelling words (spelling sentences and on Spelling Shed) and an option from the homework menu. Please return the homework on Friday, so it can be checked.
Reading and Reading Records
We expect your child to read every day. Your child's reading record must be brought in every day to be signed. Reading is such an important part of your child's development, so please prioritise this task.
Our Class Rewards
We have many rewards in Olive Class, which consist of:
Class dojo points, house points, prize box for homework and certificates every Friday.
To earn house points, your child will show behaviours or knowledge which is above our usual expectations.
