At Amesbury, we don’t set homework as such because we realise that a school day is full on and that imaginative, creative and social play are really important to a child’s development. We are also aware that students have other interests that they are involved in after school and on the weekends.
However, there are some tasks that can be completed at home if there is time.
*Finishing literacy and numeracy Must do/Can do tasks
*Spelling list words
*IXL
*Matific
*Prototec
