The boys have had a wonderful holiday and are now focused on their schooling. this term will see the boys starting to realise that their time at Hereworth is coming to an end. We will ensure they finish on a positive note and one in which you can be proud of.
The following is expected every week of Term 1:

- Maths Whizz or IXL Maths - 15 minutes per week night (minimum 60 mins a week)
- Spelling Words - definitions and sentences as well as learning the group words. All boys receive a sheet with the weekly group words as well as instructions.
