PE is on a Tuesday afternoon and swimming will take place for Year 6 during the 1st half-term and for Year 5 during the 2nd half-term. Children should continue to come dressed in their school PE kits on these days.

Homework will be set electronically on a Friday and due in the following Friday. We use SATs companion to reinforce our learning in class. Weekly spellings will also be set and you can practise these using Spelling Shed with tests in class on Friday.

Reading continues to be a really important part of our daily life and the expectation is that everyone reads for at least 30 minutes a day which should be recorded in Reading Records.
