For the remainder of the term until the Summer holidays, children will be revising their phonics, tricky words, maths and numeracy.

It would be very beneficial for this to be practiced at home, by revisiting previous blog posts, thank you!

This week we will be revisiting the digraph sounds ‘ou, oi, ue, and oo’.
