Welcome to Owls Class

Homework

Welcome to Owls! Finally at the top of the school. We’re very excited to welcome you all back after the summer break. The class teachers this year are Mrs Horsford (Monday to Wednesday) and Miss MacMillan (Thursday and Friday) and we are delighted to have Mrs Bird join us in class Mondays to Wednesdays too.

This is going to be a very busy and exciting year; we have an ambitious and stimulating curriculum designed to prepare the children for secondary education and alongside this we will have many trips to encourage curiosity and increase our individual opinions.

This year our PE days will be Thursdays and Fridays. Please can children come in to school wearing the correct school uniform as shown on the website.

Spelling is taught Monday-Wednesday and the children will take the words home on Monday to prepare for a quick test on the Wednesday.

Homework will be set every Friday and will be due in the following Wednesday. This should not take the children longer than 30 minutes. The aim is to encourage the time management skills they will require at secondary school. In addition the children should read at home every day. This is vital to increase their vocabulary and understanding of the world around them.

Remember it’s really important to be at school every day, on time and ready to learn.

Below is our curriculum for the year.
