Home Learning

We have made packs for children who have had to self-isolate so that they can continue learning. These are a mix of online learning, ideas of learning activities to complete and a time table to help you structure your day. Please see the below outline for each class and send someone to collect the pack for your child from the Children’s Centre. In order to keep this straight forward we have made suggestions of how long each activity should last with your child and suggest planning your day with breaks in between each activity. This should help manage home learning more effectively. Your child’s individual log in’s for the below are all in their home learning packs. Please see below your child’s home learning pack:
