Happy New Year! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas. We will be starting the term with a return to the online learning on Google Classroom; if you have any problems accessing the work please send me an email and I will look into this for you. I have uploaded the new homework grid, spelling list and the Spring parent newsletter to the files section for you to download. These are also all avaliable on Google Classroom. I look forward to seeing all your work. 

Kind regards,

Homework and Spellings

We are planning to use Google Classrooms for pupils to submit their homework electronically. We will be using the first two weeks to settle the pupils back in to school and the new routine before we begin sending homework out. We will notify you when the homework is available online. It is anticipated that this will be the week beginning 21st September, this is subject to change.
