This week’s whole school homework involves completing the pupil health questionnaire sent home with your child/children.
I can share my views about health.
This annual questionnaire helps us to find out pupil views on some of our key health issues at school. Please support your child to complete the health questionnaire by discussing these issues.
The questionnaire should be returned to your class teacher by Wednesday 20 July.

As you know, we have had to close school on Friday 01 July – Shadwell Lane had its water turned off. For that reason, and because two classes are out of school today, there hasn’t been chance to set homework or spellings for this week.
Even though there is no set homework or spellings, please remember there are lots of things that the children can be doing to reflect on their learning from this week.
Again, I would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused by the school closure.

Summer Half Term
In line with our Homework Policy, there are no homework tasks or spellings to learn next week because it’s the Summer half-term holiday. Of course, there are plenty of ways to help your child continue learning: get reading, go places, talk lots!
Have a happy and healthy holiday.

I understand rights and responsibilities.
This half term, our SEAL theme has been Rights and Responsibilities. We’ve been learning that if we have rights, we also have responsibilities. Children have been considering the following rights and responsibilities.
- I have the right to learn and I have the responsibility for my own learning.
- I have the right to play and I have the responsibility to play fairly.
- I have the right to express an opinion and I have the responsibility to respect the opinions of others.
- I have the right to be safe and I have the responsibility to make safe choices.
- I have the right to be healthy and I have the responsibility to make healthy choices.
Your child is required to show their understanding of rights and responsibilities in a creative way. Ideas could include:
- a story
- a poem
- a song
- a poster
- a letter
- a comic strip
- a script

The homework for this week is talk time and is due in on Wednesday 18 May.
I can tell someone my address.
In SEAL, we have been learning about safety in the home. We have looked at pictures of rooms in the home and spotted hazards and potential dangers. We discussed how we can be responsible for making our home safer, for example, picking up toys so nobody trips over them. We know what to do in an emergency in our home and know that we can call 999 to contact the police, fire brigade and ambulance in a real emergency. Hopefully, no children will ever need to call the emergency services, but if they do, it is useful (or essential if calling from a mobile) to know their address.
The children know that their address is private information and that they should never tell anyone their address unless in an emergency.

We are beginning a new big topic! ‘Toys’ was chosen by the children and I am looking forward to lots of great learning. As we begin our topic, it would be lovely to begin filling our display with some wonderful creative work!
If you want your homework on display, it needs to be possible for me to put it up!
