At Home Activities & Resources

As we continue to get used to the world we're experiencing, keeping your children entertained and engaged in their education while at home is a balancing act. While some of us may be able to spend more time helping our children with their schoolwork, others are juggling working from home or still going to work. To make your life a little bit easier, we've rounded up some fun and educational resources to help add some fun back into your child's education! English: Reading books aloud is one of the best ways for children to become confident in reading. Having your child read their favourite books aloud to you while you're cooking dinner, as a morning activity before starting schoolwork, to relax before bed or even reading aloud to their favourite soft toy are easy ways to incorporate reading into your new daily routines.Maths: If you're looking for resources written by teachers for parents, you can't go past Hunter Education Nightingale!
