Our Pupils of the Week are

Morning

Evie for fantastic number work

Maria for engaging in and completing work on ILD

Morning Everyone,

Can you believe it is the last day of the school week already.

If today is Friday can you remember what tomorrow will be?

That’s right it is………….Saturday! The first day of the weekend.

I have another challenge for you.

You will need to use your fantastic listening ears for this one. Are you ready?

I would like you to go on a SOUND HUNT. Just like a bear, shape or number hunt but using your ears.

You can share what you find on your ILD – maybe you can take a photo as well.

Here is something I hear everyday in my garden, can you guess what sound it makes?  Do you know what it is?

I wonder what you will hear? Will it be a bus? or maybe you will hear an owl?

I wonder if you would hear the same sounds every day or do they change each day?

I do look forward to hearing about what you find.

Did you know that having great listening ears is an excellent skill to have

Have a great weekend and happy Sound hunting!

Hello Everyone,

How are you all feeling today?

Do you have thumbs up, thumbs down or thumbs in the middle?

Maybe you could share on your Interactive Diary which one you are and why.

I have a challenge for you today.

Can you go outside and find  either 5 or 10 of the same items. e.g. 5 sticks, 10 leaves etc.

Now take a closer look are they really the same?

Are some bigger than others?

Are they all the same colour?

Can you put them in size order from smallest to biggest?

What other things can you do with your items?

If you can, ask your grown up to upload a picture on to your online learning diary. We do love seeing what you have been doing.

As always stay safe.

Hello Everyone,

I hope you all had a great weekend and managed to have some fun in the snow.

Today I have posted a story about filling your buckets by Carol McCloud and Katherine Martin that you can watch with your families. I have sent you all some information to share with your families so that they too know all about Bucket Filling and Bucket Emptying.

So how are we going to keep our buckets filled while we are learning at home?

Maybe you could help by tidying your toys when you are finished playing?

Or sleeping all night in your own bed?

No matter what you choose, can you ask your grown up to write it down on a heart or star we sent you and add it to the paper that has your empty bucket on it. Remember to decorate your bucket too!

You can even share what you are doing to fill your family and your own buckets to your online diary. Seeing what you are doing will make our buckets full too.

Here is a by the Learning Station that is all about bucket filling

If your grown up wants to find out more about bucket filling they can do so here

Please stay Safe and remember Please be a Bucket Filler and not a Bucket Dipper.

Hello Everyone,

I have been really excited today because of the SNOW!

Miss Palmer and myself were at the school hub and played outside in the snow with the children who are there. We had lots of fun and played until we were really cold.

We made baby Snowmen,

Snow Angel and

had a race on the sledges with Miss Stephen.

What have you done today? We would love to see your photos. Maybe your adult can upload them on to your online diary.

Please make sure that you wrap up warm to keep cosy.

Stay Safe.

The Nursery Team

We appreciate that these can be difficult times for families and that many families are facing challenges. While the school and nursery are closed can I ask that families please keep in touch with us and let us know how you are doing.

It can be a simple we are all good, to letting us know what your child has been up to or asking for help if you are struggling. Just because Nursery is not open does not mean that you can not approach us if you need advice or just a friendly ear to listen.

We as a School are still here to support you and your child.

You can contact us through

• email- your child’s key worker or Miss S McDonald
• Your child’s Interactive Diary
• Give us a thumbs up on Marvellous Me

Please look after yourselves and stay safe.

The Nursery Team!

I hope that you all had a fantastic holiday period. We were all looking forward to having you back in nursery and starting the new term. Unfortunately to help keep us all safe we have to stay at home for a wee bit longer.

The nursery team will be posting a letter for you through your door with a challenge for you.

Please keep coming to look at the blog, as the nursery team will be sharing some more fantastic stories, songs, activities and challenges that you can join in with from home.

As always we would love to hear what you have been doing and all the fantastic achievements you make while learning at home. You can ask the adults you live with to share a photo on your ILD.  We may even share your fantastic ideas and activities with your friends right here on the blog.

We hope to see you soon until then Take care and Stay safe.
