Homework
The children have now been provided with SATs revision books. The work pages are given out every Friday and are expected back the following Friday. The homework set should take around 40 mins per week. A homework club is available every Wednesday from 17th January for children to come and get help with their work or to extend their learning through challenges. Please encourage your child to complete the work set as it is revision of the topics they have covered this year.

Children are expected to read for 20 minutes every day.
There are also reading challenge sheets that we would encourage the children to complete. They can win tokens for the reading vending machine.
