Information
Children can bring a small pencil case to school with stationery for them to use in lessons, or for them to store school's stationery in. School will still provide children with stationery they need for lessons. We suggest children have the following in their pencil cases:
- A pencil
- A blue biro
- A whiteboard pen
- A whiteboard rubber
- A purple pen
- A long ruler
- A pair of scissors
- A glue stick
- A green highlighter
Children may also bring their own crayons, but we only use these occasionally.
Children will be given weekly maths and English homework. Homework will be given out on a Friday and collected in on a Thursday.
