- Reading
Enjoying books and discovering new perspectives within the pages of a story can be a great way to introduce children to a range of experiences and viewpoints. The more a child reads, the more likely they are to be exposed to new narratives which can help them develop empathy. Here is a list of recommended books your child can read to help support their literacy skills.

- How can I help my child at home?
We would appreciate your support in encouraging your child to build an independent routine whereby they complete their homework and return it to school on time. This will set them in good stead for high school.
Every Tuesday, homework books go home for completion and are due back in school on Monday morning for marking and feedback. Weekly spelling lists are given to learn, which can be practised using their individual Spelling Shed log ins, and they are tested on these words on Monday morning. We also go through all the homework together after the spelling test.
- Year 6 SATs
We hold an annual Parents' Information Evening during the Autumn Term to provide information to parents about what the SATs entail, and how you can best support your child. In the Spring term, parents also have the opportunity to take part in a SATs stay-and-learn session with their children. We run SATs Booster Clubs throughout the year.
