Homework

Through the active involvement and interest of parents/guardians in their childrens homework on a daily basis, consistent and steady progress is made by the child over a period of time. Therefore we strongly encourage you to take an active interest in your childs homework and ensure that the allocated homework is done each evening.

 

Informal Homework in the infant classes consists of:

 

Oral Work
Reading
Learning Spellings, Tables and Prayers

 

Written Work

 

Formal homework will be given to pupils from 1st - 6th classes up to four nights per week.

If for some reason, all the homework is not done, a written note/explanation should be sent to the class teacher.

Parents of pupils, from 1st - 6th classes are asked to check and sign the homework notebook each night.

Regular failure to complete homework will be recorded by the class teacher.

Parents/Guardians may be contacted to discuss the problem with the class teacher and/or with the Principal.

Children may be asked to complete homework assignments during the mid-morning break under the supervision of a teacher.
