Welcome to Nursery 2!
Welcome to Nursery 2. We are the Foxes group! Our class teachers are Mrs Flanagan and Mrs Grayson. We are also supported by our wonderful Teaching Assistants, Mrs Sloan and Mrs Borg-Fenech.
In Nursery we are challenged to become independent learners through exciting continuous provision and guided activities. We are looking forward to sharing the fantastic work we do with you all, watch this space for regular updates!

Parent Information
We record significant moments in your child's time in Nursery on their Tapestry account. Please login to see what your child has been doing. You can comment on observations made and also upload any of your own photos and observations that you would like to share with us.
*Tapestry will also be used in the event of the Nursery bubble closure. If this was to happen, Tapestry will be used as a way to keep in touch with the children. Observations will be uploaded that invite the children to attend zoom and story time sessions with the teachers.
Please follow us on Twitter to see what we have been learning!
Weekend News
As a way to support the development of your child's speaking and listening skills, we send home 'weekend news' sheets every Friday. Please talk with your child about one thing they have done at the weekend and note this briefly on the sheet (photos can be uploaded to tapestry - as they act as a great way to support children in recalling past events). Please send this sheet into Nursery the following Monday morning so that your child can share their news during snack and chat time.
🦊Fox of the Week🦊
Each Friday a child is chosen to take Francis the Fox home for the weekend. We encourage parents to take photos of what your child and Francis the Fox have been doing over the weekend and upload these to your child's Tapestry account. They are then shared with the class during Monday morning snack and chat time.
Please remember to label all items of clothing and footwear.
Please ensure your child has spare clothing on their peg.
