HOMEWORK POLICY FOR 2011-12

All children will be given homework each school day, Homework is to consolidate the day’s learning and prepare the child for the following day.

Sometimes an activity may be required which will enhance the child’s understanding of a unit’s work and promote conversation on the topic between parent and child.

Homework is to be done by the children themselves, although parents may need to assist or encourage at times.
