Homework

If anyone has any empty kitchen rolls at home, please could these be sent into school with your child on Monday. We will be completing our diorama's next week, and these will be used as trees and animals amongst other things. Additionally, if your child would like to include something specific in their diorama, they are welcome to bring it in on Monday.

Many thanks for your continued support.

Children will be tested on their spellings every Friday.

Notes to Know This Week:

The children will bring home a reading book shortly based on their most recent Accelerated Reading assessment taken this week. In the meantime, please continue to encourage your child to read their current book everyday. Thank you for your paitence in this matter.
