Please scroll down to see our important information including our curriculum, key days and dates in the academic year.
PE Days
Our PE days in school are Wednesday and Thursday. Please ensure your child comes in the appropriate clothing to be able to partake.
Library Day
Our Library day is a Tuesday. Please ensure your child returns any books they have borrowed as and when they finish reading.
Homework
Each week, we will set homework using CGP books for Maths and English. We will ask children to take these home to complete on Fridays. These will need to be returned by the following Thursday. In their planners, the children will note the pages that they need to complete.
As well as these books, we encourage the children to read and complete their planners. In their planners, there are spellings and times tables to practise.
