PE days:
Our PE days for 2025-2026 are on Wednesdays and Fridays - please make sure your child has a full, named PE kit in school on these days. The PE kits will be kept in school on pegs and sent home at the end of each half term to be washed and checked. Please make sure any ear piercings are removed on PE days.
Homework expectations:
Reading
- Starting soon, on Fridays the children will also bring home a special RWI 'book bag book' that links to the one they have been reading. This is an unfamiliar text and will therefore test the skills they learnt the week before to read it. Ideally the children should be reading 5 times a week.
- Also starting soon, Wednesdays, your child will also be set a RWI inc book via the Oxford Owl website. This is the book that they will have been studying that week in their RWI lessons.
- Also, the children will be able to borrow a book from the school library for you to enjoy together. Our library day is Tuesday.
Maths
- For now no formal Maths homework will be set. However, is always helpful to practise counting. In Year 1 we will be counting in 1s forwards and backwards to 100, in 2s forwards and backwards to 24 and in 10s forwards and backwards to 120. Practising speedy knowledge of number facts such as number bonds (to 10 or 20), doubles and halves is also beneficial.
