Welcome to Class 10's page

Reading

This is one of the most important skills. Reading is used for every subject in school and vital for life! You must read every night for 10/15 minutes (or more of course!). Bring your book every day to school - signed by whoever reads with you!

Fruit Snack

Bring £1.00 to school on a Monday, every week for snack. We use any left over for other classroom resources.

Uniform

Please make sure your school uniform has your name on it. Don't forget your coat! This is to make sure that there are no mix-ups, or if you lose your jumper, it can be returned to you as soon as possible.

Homework

We are trialing a new type of homework. We have given the pupils a 'Homework Menu'. Pupils have been given a list of homework they can complete over this half term. Each week they choose the homework they wish to complete, do it in their books and date the menu to say that piece has been completed. So far pupils and parents have said they have enjoyed the variety and pupils are feeling more independent.

Your child will be taking part in PE every Monday afternoon. Could you please ensure that your child has their PE kit in school with their names clearly labelled on them. Could you please send suitable footwear e.g trainers, as we will be going outside for our lesson.
