Introduction

Welcome to Fox Class!

Miss Jessica Rydqvist – Class Teacher

Mrs Jacky Dinnis (HLTA every morning)

Miss Tracy Donnelly (HLTA every afternoon)

Mrs Julie Milne (TA every afternoon)

We are a mixed Reception/Year 1 class and there are currently 21 of us! At our end of the school, we learn through child-initiated and adult-led activities and we choose what we would like to learn about!

We have a bright and colourful room that supports our learning and offers and range of activities.

Our current topic is ‘Me and my Family’. We will be looking at our family tree and finding out about families around the world!

Reading

Please can you hear your child read every evening. The stories we hear as children shape our view of the world. Reading stories to children can show them far-flung places, extraordinary people and eye-opening situations to expand and enrich their world. It also benefits their language and writing skills!

Homework

Homework for Year 1 will be set every Friday and should be returned the following Thursday. Spellings and an online maths game will be set to reinforce what we have learnt that week.

PE

Please can you have a named PE kit in school at all times. PE will be on a Tuesday and Friday and will be both indoors and out.

Forest School

We LOVE outdoor learning here at Lewannick! For the Autumn term, Fox Class will have Forest School every Friday afternoon, so wellies and waterproofs are essential.

I am looking forward to supporting your child develop a love for learning over the year!

If at any point you have any concerns or would like to speak to me please do not hesitate to see me after school or make an appointment in the office.
