Key Information

PE: Wednesdays (outdoor) and Thursdays (indoor)

Reading:  We ask that children are heard read at home at least 4 times per week and their reading planner is signed by an adult.  When a child reads four times a week and their planner has been signed, they get to move up within the reading championship!  We ask that reading planners and books are brought in to school everyday and children can change their books as and when they need to. Children can also borrow books from the school library.

Class Rewards

Dojo Points: Class Dojo points are awarded to pupils who display our core values of pride, respect, resilience, kindness and ambition.
Rewards Menu: Once a child has achieved 100 Class Dojo points they are free to exchange these for a treat of our 'rewards menu', on display in every classroom!

Star of the Week: One child each week is selected for a special award for demonstrating one of our school values, issued in our weekly Celebration Assembly.

Mathematics: 

Spelling: Children will bring home their spelling list each Monday.  They will practise spellings which follow the same rule throughout the week and be tested on a Friday.  The aim is for the children to learn the rule so they will be tested on the words sent home plus two more words following the same rule.

Times Tables: Children should also regularly practise their times tables (up to 12 x 12) on Times Tables Rock Stars.
