Home Learning

Home learning plays a crucial role in your child's educational experiences by providing them with opportunities to: explore interests, develop independence, strengthens skills, make connection with real life and  build stronger family bonds.

Home learning can take many forms. Often parents like to introduce a variety of interests in and out of school so children have the opportunity to explore other interests that they enjoy.  Learn together, do things together, visit interesting places, talk about things you’ve seen on television and encourage your child to ask questions. Support their reading development by having books, magazines and newspapers in the home and let your child see you and other family members reading them.

It is importance to remember that when a child comes home from school they may just want to relax for a moment, so try not to fire too many questions at your child as soon as they walk through the door. They may be tired or hungry and not feel like talking. Be available to listen later if they want to talk.
