Homework

Homework is set on a Friday and is due the following Wednesday. On Friday, your child will receive a homework letter telling them the task for that week. We use MyMaths, an online programme where you can complete homework and practise all aspects of maths. Logins for MyMaths have already been given to your child. Please keep this information safe. You will need it throughout the school year.
