About Us

Hi Foxes and Badgers,

Welcome to your class page where you will hopefully find lots of information.

Please make sure you bring your book bag with reading pack in everyday along with a named water bottle. You can bring in a healthy snack for playtime but we do have access to the 'free fruit of the day'.

Monday is our PE day so you will need to come to school wearing your PE kit (black joggers/shorts/leggings, white t-shirt, black zip up hoodie or Tadpole Farm hoodie and daps or trainers). Make sure long hair is tied up and earrings are taken out to avoid any injuries.

Please make sure you try and read with your child at least 4 times in the week and record in your reading record. Books should be able to be read with ease before your teacher changes them. Remember, when your child reads 20 times, they will receive a certificate, a sticker from Mr Spencer and a prize! Your child will also bring home a 'Borrowing Burrow' book that they have chosen. This book is to share at home and is usually read to the child by an adult of big sibling.

Homework will usualy go out weekly and can be uploaded onto Seesaw - children do not need to bring in their completed homework. 

At school, we use a Phonics scheme called 'Monster Phonics'. Click on the below links to learn more:
