Toroa - Year 7-8

Home learning is sent out as a booklet each term. Each week, students are to complete a unit with maths, reading, spelling, and grammar elements. There are various levels, to ensure that students can work independently. Homework is marked each week.

During the school week, students are also expected to complete set tasks on one of the online reading enrichment programmes; Reading Plus, Lexia, or Core 5 (this will take approx 60 minutes per week). If these have not been completed during school time, we ask students to do them at home.
