At St Paul’s we would like you to listen and talk to your child about the book that
they bring home from school every evening. Each child has a Reading Record for
you to make comment on when you have heard your child read. These need to be
brought into school everyday.
Homework will be given once a week on a Friday. It is due in on a Thursday. Please
discuss the homework that your child has each week as this relates to their
learning in school
