Froxfield CofE Primary and Pre-School
A place where children love to learn
Class One
Welcome to Class One
My name is Mrs Ingham Thomas and I have a passion for teaching and lots of experience of teaching children in the Foundation Stage and Year One.
Together with Mrs Badman, I plan to provide fun, hands-on activities within a safe and stimulating learning environment, which will promote motivated, enthused and eager learners. Your child will have time to initiate their own learning through play. They will also take part in teacher led whole class, small group and individual activitives.
Throughout the year we will plan activities based on particular themes or learning clusters which will be enhanced by learning outside the classroom, including school trips.
If you have any questions or queries, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We are all looking forward to teaching your child and working in partnership with you to support your child’s learning.
Mrs Ingham Thomas and Mrs Badman
