Forest Class 2024 - 2025

Miss Axon

Miss Axon is our Forest Class teacher.

Welcome to Forest Class!

We are a warm and welcoming class consisting of Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), Year 1, and Year 2 children. Our classroom is a vibrant and inclusive space, thoughtfully designed to create an engaging learning environment. We have a calm corner, a cosy reading area, and a dedicated writing area, alongside a large construction area that encourages free play and creativity.

In addition to our bright indoor setting, we are privileged to have our own designated outdoor area for continuous provision. This outdoor space features a sand/water pit, a painting area, and an array of fun and engaging activities on tuff trays. We also have a brand new outdoor reading nook that invites children to immerse themselves in stories. We are also fortunate to have Kett Cottage, a lovely space that provides endless opportunities for imaginative play.

Our teaching team includes Miss Axon (Class Teacher) and Mrs Price (Cover Teacher during Miss Axon's PPA time). Mrs Connick is our Teaching Assistant on most mornings and Miss T and Mrs Browne also help in Forest Class too.

As well as being our Teaching Assistant on Tuesdays, Mrs Browne also delivers our weekly Forest School sessions in the Quiet Garden.

We enjoy our weekly PE sessions with Mr Otto. We also complete a weekly class run and a yoga or fitness challenge set by Mrs McLaughlin.

 

We use the phonics programme Read Write Inc. The following link provides an introduction to how we say the sounds:
