Welcome to Hares Class

Hello and welcome to Hares!  Our class teachers are Miss Pettengell and Miss Fox.

Our classroom is bright, well-resourced and set up to help us learn and do our best. We have a lovely outdoor space we share with Rabbits and Owls classes and as we are currently housed in the new Buttercup block, we also have access to the specialised games area beside our classroom.

We enjoy Phonics, English and Mathematics s lessons every day. Our long term plan and time table are available on the website for you to access any time.

Our exciting themes for this year are as follows:

Autumn 1 – Dinosaurs

Autumn 2 – Ourselves

Spring 1 – Kings and Queens

Spring 2 – Up in the air

Summer 1 – Growing

Summer 2 – Seaside

Miss Pettengell teaches on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, while Miss Fox teaches on Tuesdays.

We have a PE lessons twice a week usually on a Monday and Friday, so please make sure the children come to school dressed in their PE kit on these days.

We encourage the children to read with an adult at least four times a week at home and reading books are checked and changed often. We have a full range of decodables available for our learners to ensure they are practising reading at the correct level as well as being challenged with more fiction and non fiction in class. 

Below you will find some useful documents including our ‘Spelling Booklet’ for the current term so that you can support us at home.
