Mrs Milner-Darke and Miss Rose
 
At Loxwood, we believe that every student deserves the best possible learning experience. Our teachers have curated Amazon Wish Lists filled with essential tools, supplies, and educational resources that will help enrich and enhance the learning opportunities in their classrooms. These items, from books to STEM kits and art materials, are selected to spark creativity, foster curiosity, and support students in reaching their full potential.
 
By contributing to our class Amazon Wish Lists, you’re directly impacting the classroom experience and ensuring that each child has access to the resources they need to succeed. Every donation, no matter how big or small, makes a difference, and we are incredibly grateful for your support in helping us create an inspiring and engaging learning environment. Thank you for being a part of our school community!

Woodland learning with Mrs Harder:
 
Woodland Learning will happen in most weathers, other than high winds and thunderstorms therefore it means the children should be prepared to be outside in all weathers and dressed appropriately. To ensure we make the most of our time outside and are able to deepen our learning, playtime will be included in the Woodland Learning session.
 

We ask that your child comes to school dressed in their Woodland Learning Kit on that day and please make sure all other items are named and are in a named bag. It is also useful to have a separate plastic bag for muddy clothes or boots following the sessions.

 

What to Wear

Your child will need to wear:

-Jacket/waterproof coat

-Fleece/sweatshirt*

-Waterproof trousers/trousers that can get muddy*

-Spare socks

-Wellies or boots (named and kept at school)

-Woolly hat/sunhat (weather dependent)

-Gloves (weather dependent)

-Spare plastic bag for muddy kit

*Shorts, short sleeved shirts, crop tops and football kits are not suitable
