It is fantastic to see great learning going on at home!

Learning Challenge
Each half term we set our pupils a challenge related to their learning. We believe that it is important for us to provide guidance for parents on how their children's learning can be extended at home.

The learning challenge sometimes includes a nursery rhyme, famous person, illustration or a piece of music.

We encourage you as parents to support your children in their learning challenge. The children can choose how they present their learning challenge outcomes to their teacher or class.
