Home Learning

We will post some home learning activities below and on Tapestry each term for you to use if you wish. 

Your child will also receive a box of Numicon. We will send activity ideas for your child to do with their Numicon to support them with their learning in Maths. 

Please find the Parent User Guide for Tapestry below. This has been designed to make the use of Tapestry straight forward at home. If you are still having difficulties, please get in contact with your child's class teacher.

There are some useful documents to support you with more ideas for home learning activities below.

PE takes place on a Friday. Children need to come to school dressed in their PE kits on their PE days. As it gets colder, they should come to school wearing leggings or tracksuit bottoms.
