- If you are sending your child with their own snack- please ensure this is a healthy snack. At St Michael's we have a strict no nut policy. So please ensure that the food you send your child into school with does not contain nuts.
- If your child is coming to School with their own packed lunch, please consider contents of their lunch boxes-children have 30 minutes to eat their lunch.

Reading stories
- Daily reading is a key part of your child’s education and something that you should continue to do if they are home learning. Both reading to your child, having your child read to you is something that should be done on a regular basis.
- You could encourage your child to act out stories or create a puppet show (shadow puppets are great for this) to retell the story they have just read.
- If your child isn’t a fan of fiction, non-fiction books are just as valuable. Challenge them to recount what they have found out.
- Practical tip: Every time you read with your child, ask them questions about what they have read.
Below is a video that can support you to help your child learn the sounds we cover in school throughout the year.
