Physical Education (PE)
Our PE days are every Monday and Thursday.
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 Thursday, and will consist of a Mathletics task, set of spelling words (written and on Spelling Shed) and a writing task. Please return the homework on Thursday 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 on Friday to be checked by Mrs McDonald or Mrs Davis. Reading is such an important part of your child's development so please prioritise this task.

Class dojo points throughout the week, Golden Globes, extra play and certificates every Friday.
