Half Term Project Details and Homework Ideas 

Autumn 1 – Do you want to be friends?

The new project will run for the first half of the Autumn Term. Homework contributions can be made throughout the half term, please make sure your child brings in something that they have worked on at home by FRIDAY 18th OCTOBER 2024.   

For your child’s homework they can pick one of the following to complete: 

• Making Friends 

• Being Kind 

• Being Helpful 

Could you ask your child to draw a picture relating to any of the above areas. This could be friends they have made and how they have been kind or helpful at home or at school. 

We will be displaying all of the children's work in the classroom.

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to seeing your creations
