Welcome to our class page! 

Weekly Routine

Homework 

Homework will consist of reading 5 times a week with an adult, practising your times tables, spellings and completing a page of your comprehension and maths books each week.  See below for further details. 

Reading

We will expect you to read 5 times a week with an adult at home and record it in your reading record.  Your reading records will be checked by the adults in class each week and when 5 reads have been recording with an adult at home, you will be entered into the weekly class reading raffle for a chance at winning reading prize. 

Spellings

Each Friday, you will be given your weekly spellings to practise at home in your homework books. The homework books are expected back in on a Wednesday. 

Times Tables 

Times Tables will be set via Times Table Rock Stars for their weekly homework.  Staff are able to monitor your progress via the website.  

Water Bottles

Please ensure that you bring a clean water bottle to school each day which is clearly marked with your name.  We have cold water towers around school for you to refill your water bottle throughout the day. 

PE 

Please see the Class Bulletin for your weekly PE slots.  

PE kit will need to be worn on that day. 

Forest School

Please see the Class Bulletin for your weekly Forest School slot.

Forest School takes place in all weathers and all seasons. Children and adults must be dressed appropriately as 'there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing!'

You are encouraged to explore and investigate; you will need clothes that enable you do do this.  As a parent said, 'You can wash away the mud, but you can't wash away the experience.' 

Forest School Clothing:

• Jogging bottoms
• Sweatshirt
• Wellies
• Water proof trousers
• Water proof jacket

Remember - these items will get muddy!
