A TYPICAL FUNFOX CLASS
The jobs your child will do haven't been invented yet. The skills they'll need have.
Reading closely, thinking clearly, and saying what you mean. Every generation has needed them. This one will be judged on them faster, more publicly, and by more people than any before it.So we teach them the way you’d teach anything that matters. One skill at a time, in the right order, with a teacher who reads every piece of work and tells your child exactly what to do next.
01
A warmup game
Every class is built around games, activities and peer discussion. Children are too busy having fun to notice they’re building skills that will serve them for life.
02
Guided skill building
The teacher introduces a specific skill. Children practise it together, in a group where trying and getting it wrong is completely fine.
03
Create and share
Children write, read, or analyse, then share with the group. Hearing other perspectives is where the real thinking develops.
04
Personal feedback
Every child gets specific, encouraging written feedback before the next class. One strength. One next step. Always constructive. Always kind.
what we believe
What we believe how children learn
Every decision we make, how we structure classes, how we give feedback, how we group students comes back to these four beliefs.
Writing is a skill, not a talent
Fun is not the opposite of rigour
Feedback is the engine of improvement
Small groups change everythin
HOW WE'RE DIFFERENT
We're not a tutoring service. We're a thinking and expression system.
The distinction matters, because it changes everything about how we teach.
Structured curriculum
Every term has a clear focus and progression. Skills are introduced in the right order and built on deliberately, not covered at random.
Personal feedback always
No generic comments. No ticks and crosses. Every student gets written feedback on every piece of work specific to their writing, their level, and their next step.
Flipped classroom model
Homework comes before class. Students arrive primed, having already attempted the concept. Class time is used for guided practice and discussion, not passive instruction.
Progress you can see
Parents access the Learning Den portal to view homework, feedback, and class recordings. The improvement is visible, week by week, not just at report card time.
the cirriculum
Every activity in every lesson was chosen on purpose.
There is no stock content in FunFox. Every text, every game, every writing task and every feedback rubric was written by our own team, sequenced deliberately, and revised after real classes taught it.
Aligned to the Australian Curriculum
Sequenced, not assembled
Built and revised in-house
Tested before it ships
FUNFOX FOR SCHOOLS
Schools use our curriculum too.
LitLeap is the school version of the FunFox program: sequenced lesson playlists, curriculum-aligned objectives, customisable classroom resources, interactive student modules and rubric-based assessment, with analytics at student, class and school level.
It’s running in schools across Sydney, where it’s used as the English curriculum rather than alongside one. One of those schools recorded a 22% increase in students reaching the Exceeding band in NAPLAN after two terms.
The problem we built FunFox to solve was never a problem with children. It’s how little time a classroom teacher is given for literacy. LitLeap hands them a full sequence so they don’t have to build one.
OUR PROGRAMS
Four programs. One goal. Every age covered.
From the first weeks of school to Year 10, FunFox has a structured, curriculum-aligned program for every stage.
Years 1–2
Foundation Club
Best for: Children building their early reading, writing and communication foundations.
Through games, stories and hands-on activities, young children discover that reading and writing are actually exciting.
Years 3–6
Writers Club
Best for: Children who need to build stronger, more confident and creative writing skills.
Children explore descriptive, narrative, persuasive and informative writing, not through drills, but through guided activities that make expressing themselves feel natural and enjoyable.
Years 3–6
Readers Club
Best for: Children ready to strengthen comprehension, interpretation and deeper thinking about what they read.
Through real books, stories and poetry, children develop the curiosity and analytical tools to go beyond what they read, and understand the world more deeply.
Years 7–10
High School Club
Best for: Students developing stronger essay writing, analysis and argumentation skills.
Students develop the essay writing, analysis and argumentation skills that high school demands, through structured discussion and genuine literary exploration.
REAL RESULTS
What parents start noticing.
Real changes happen when structure meets encouragement.
