Homework in Year 5 is presented in a fortnightly homework grid, providing students with a range of activities to complete over a two-week period. The homework grid includes tasks across key learning areas such as Reading, Writing, Mathematics and Religion, as well as activities that promote physical activity, wellbeing, creativity, general knowledge and family/service.
Students are encouraged to read each night, complete the set learning activities and participate in tasks that build independence, responsibility and positive learning habits.
Homework will be set and completed over a two-week period (a fortnight). It will begin in Week 2, with the following schedule:
- Weeks 2–3: Due Friday of Week 3
- Weeks 4–5: Due Friday of Week 5
- Weeks 6–7: Due Friday of Week 7
- Weeks 8–9: Due Friday of Week 9
- A parent or caregiver is asked to sign the homework grid before it is returned.
Thank you for your continued support in helping students develop positive homework habits and responsibility.
