Unlocking potential today for a brighter tomorrow

Home Learning

Home Learning

Every week your child will  receive a homework project. Please return these projects as they make part of your child’s learning journey and show the progress they make during the year. We also appreciate your feedback on these projects so we can make them more fun for you and your child to complete.

 

What can you see?

Picture discussion cards

Each week you will receive a picture card to share with your child. There are some questions to discuss. Encourage your child to talk about the picture and create their own story. Some cards come with a story card to read to your child before looking at the questions and picture together.

 

1000 stories

Each day, each week you can borrow a book from our school library to read to your child at bedtime. This is a great way to extend your child’s vocabulary.
