Homework

The amount and frequency of homework set by teachers varies from grade to grade. While students from Kindergarten to Grade 2 have no formal homework, they do at times bring home Reading books, Spelling to learn and Maths work to do. In the primary classes, students are allocated homework to do, although Grade 3 students will not have as much to do as students in Grade 6. Homework is set to:

• Assist students to develop worthwhile study habits, which will equip them with strategies to promote independent learning.
• Provide opportunities for students to develop responsibility, perseverance, self-discipline and time management skills.
• Provide opportunities for positive support roles for parents/guardians to assist their children.
• Encourage child/parent/school communication.

Homework and study times for Years 7 -10 will be determined when the Huntingfield Campus commences.
