Home Learning Update (17.4.20)
As a result of the continued school closure, I have prepared work for your child to complete while they’re at home, to enable them to continue their learning. A paper copy of this pack is ready for collection at school. Please contact the school office on 01704 538366 to arrange collection of the pack.
English and Maths
In your child’s pack there are some daily English and Maths activities, with suggestions of how the children can be supported in their learning.
In order to support your child, please ensure that they complete these tasks in small ‘chunks’ of time, rather than expecting them to complete hours of work. Below is an example of what they might complete in a day:
- a reading task
- a maths task
- a writing task
There are a list of useful websites on the Reception class page of the Holy Trinity Primary School website that can give you additional ideas and activities if you need to.
I will still be using the class dojo, so please feel free to send me a message, if you have any questions about the work. It would be lovely to see photographs of your child’s work.
Thank you for your support,
Lorna Bond

READING
Please try to read every night at home and record it in your reading record. This can be a reading book from school, a story book from home or a library book.
HOME SCHOOL BOOKS
The Home School Books will be collected every Monday to enable staff to add information about the learning taking place in school. They will then be given out on Wednesday so that the children will have them at home for over the weekend.
PE SESSIONS
Reception PE sessions are on Monday and Thursday morning. Please ensure PE kits are in school and earrings are removed for these sessions.
