Parents, do you want to support your child at home with learning and have some fun while you do it? Why not visit LearningMole.
LearningMole focuses on educating children of all ages in key skills of Maths, English and learning through crafts and learning videos. We offer advice and practical, interactive ideas to help parents challenge, teach and develop their children’s skills at home.
Why is reading so important?
Studies show that reading for pleasure makes a big difference to children’s educational performance. Here’s how you can get your child off to a great start.
Evidence suggests that children who read for enjoyment every day not only perform better in reading tests than those who don’t, but also develop a broader vocabulary, increased general knowledge and a better understanding of other cultures.
In fact, reading for pleasure is more likely to determine whether a child does well at school than their social or economic background.
So, don't waste any more time. Sit down with your child today and get lost in a book! For more information, call into school and have a chat with the class teacher who can help give you tips on developing a love of reading at home, or click on the link below which provides some great ideas and support for reading.
Ronan from Sustran was taking Assembly today. He was challenging us all to become more active and get involved in some exciting challenges. We are attempting to become an ‘active travel school’.
One important message was cycling with a helmet and if possible high visibility clothing or vests.
Great opportunity for us today. Google are in school delivering internet safety roadshow. We are all learning to be Internet Legends.
