Homework is a very important aspect of the pupils’ development. From Prep II upwards, each pupil has a homework diary in which the work for the evening is written. Parents are requested to sign the entry to say that the work has been satisfactorily completed. Messages can also be sent home and to school via the homework diary.
Reception: 10 minutes per day, reading reinforcement.
Prep I: Monday – Thursday: 15 mins Weekend: 30 minutes
Prep II: Monday – Thursday: 15 mins Weekend: 30 minutes
Preps III -IV: Monday – Thursday: 30 mins Weekend : 1 hour
(Literacy and numeracy with occasional assignments in other subjects.)
Preps V -VI: Monday – Thursday: 40 mins. Weekend: 1h 15 minutes
(This is the regular weekly schedule with continued emphasis on literacy and numeracy, but also ranging over the curriculum.)
Reading is also given as work to be done at home, thus strengthening the partnership between child, home and school.
