Important Information
We are continuing to develop students’ resilience and encourage consistent homework routines. Homework alternates each week, with Reading and Maths assigned in odd-numbered weeks, and Reading and Talk Homework in even-numbered weeks. We would greatly appreciate your support in establishing and maintaining these routines at home, helping students develop responsibility and independence in their learning.
