PE kit (Including outdoor learning)
All children must wear suitable clothing for PE to school on Mondays and Wednesday / Thursday.

No jewellery is to be worn to school on these for health and safety reasons. If worn to school on PE days, children will be required to remove earrings for the lesson, and these will be stored safely by the teacher.

Money
Any money brought into school should be in a labelled envelope.

This is more important now than ever to reduce the risk of cross contamination.

Spellings
Spellings will be available for your child every fortnight on Google Classroom. Spelling tests will be conducted every other Friday.

Homework
There will be a ‘Homework Menu’ available on Google Classroom, Dojo and paper copy.

How can you help at home?
Please read with your child and complete activities from the ‘Homework Menu’
