Children

Foxgloves

Welcome to Foxgloves

Be the best you can be

Our class teachers are Mrs Brooksby (Monday-Tuesday) and Mrs Swales (Wednesday-Friday). Every other Wednesday, we will also have Mrs Turner and Mrs Parkinson teaching us. 

There are 28 of us in the class.

  • Our P.E. day is a Wednesday with Mr Yates (we have a double P.E. session). Please remember to arrive in suitable P.E. kit on a Wednesday.
  • Please make sure any school uniform is labelled clearly.
  • Children should also bring a labelled water bottle every day.

Homework Expectations

All passwords for online homework should be in your child's reading record books.

  • Spelling homework is set every week. Our spelling quizzes are every Wednesday.
  • Homework is set weekly (Friday to Friday). Spelling, grammar and punctuation (SPAG) homework and Maths homework are set on a two-week cycle. One week, SPAG homework will be set online on spag.com. The alternate week will be set on maths.co.uk. We anticipate children spend at least a minimum of 30 minutes on this. 
  • Times tables should also be completed on 'Times Tables Rock Stars' (TTRS), at least 15 minutes per week.
  • We expect children to be reading at home at least 3 times a week and signed by a parent/carer in your child's reading record book.
