If you are really proud of your homework you can scan or take a picture of your wonderful work and send it to my email or tweet me a picture @St_BarbarasPS.
I hope that you and your family have a safe and relaxing September weekend.
As this week is a shorter week, your child has only been set tasks for Monday and Tuesday night.
The accompanying worksheets will be sent home in the clear plastic zippy wallet on Monday night. I would really appreciate if this wallet could be returned to school empty in your child’s school bag on Tuesday. Please return your child’s reading book to school on Wednesday this week.

Your child has been issued with a clear plastic folder with a red zip. This folder is for bringing homework home from school only and should be returned the following day. On the label it will say your child’s name, class and which group they are working in at the moment. (Red, Green or Blue) Please keep jotters/worksheets at home for now.
