Our Class Saint is St Peter; we celebrate his Feast Day on June 29th. St. Peter was the first Pope of the Catholic Church. He was a fisherman and he is one of Jesus' 12 apostles.

St. Peter is the Patron Saint of fishermen, net makers builders.

Prayer to St Peter

O glorious St Peter,

because of your vibrant and generous faith,

sincere humility and flaming love,

Our Lord honoured you with singular privileges

and especially leader of the whole Church.

Obtain for us the grace of a living faith,

a sincere loyalty to the Church,

acceptance of all her teachings,

and obedience to all her precepts.

Let us thus enjoy an undisturbed peace on earth

and everlasting happiness in heaven.

Amen.

Homework

Homework will also be set on our page. 

This page will contain homework set on a Friday and it is to be completed by the following Wednesday.  

Your child has been provided with a blue homework book in which to do any homework. You do not need a printer to complete the activities, they are all in the blue book. Please remember to bring your child's homework book in on the Wednesday so that we can mark the work and then have it returned to you by the Friday. 

Please continue to read every night with your child and sign the reading record book. 

We would like to reassure you that your child will not be put under undue pressure on their return to school. We will do all that we can to help each individual child to catch-up on missed learning whilst striving to create a nurturing and caring environment within school.

Our children’s well-being is of utmost importance to us.

We recently sent out the phase 2 and 3 phonic sounds so that you can check which sounds your child knows.  Please return these sheets when completed and we will work on those sounds with your child in class. 

If you feel like you would like to help your child with phonics at home, we can recommend the following websites:

• https://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/ - to point them in the direction of games like 'Buried Treasure', 'Picnic on Pluto', 'Make a Match', 'Dragon's Den' (to practise segmenting and blending real and nonsense words).
• https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/books/free-ebooks/

Home Learning

If you are home due to isolation, this section will contain the work that we will be covering at school during your absence. If you are attending school, you do not need to complete this work.
