Tuesday 23rd May

Today Jack’s Mum came to Nursery to tell us abut her job. She is a Prosthetist.

She told us how to make plaster casts, showed some of the prosthetic limbs that she fits and showed us some photos of people using their prosthetic limbs.

Thank you to Jack’s Mum for visiting today.

Wednesday 24th May

Today Ben’s Dad came to Nursery to talk to us about his job. He is in the Royal Navy and is a Submariner. He works away from home for a long time.

The submarine goes underwater and has no windows. If the submarine is close to the surface, the submariners can use the periscope to see above the water. The submarines do not have very much space on them.

Thank you to Ben’s Dad for taking the time to talk to the children today.

Thursday 25th May

Today Cameron’s Dad talked to us about his job – he owns ‘The Forge’ in Menstrie.

The children got lots of ideas for their Nursery cafe.

Thank you to Gordon for giving up his time.

We would like to thank all of the parents and other family members who supported us on our trip to Almond Valley. The children all thoroughly enjoyed it. Here are some photos from our day:

Miss MacLeod will be with us every Thursday until the end of term. She will be covering Mrs Nimmo’s Star Group as Mrs Nimmo will be delivering POPP programme.

Well done to everyone who participated in ‘Trashion Fashion’ and made a hat out of recycled items.  We had four winners who were chosen by Mr Pennie and Mr Horsburgh. Congratulations to Zachary, Eva, Annie and Adair! Well done to all of the children who participated. Fantastic effort from all!

The children really enjoyed ‘Health Week’ and the activities on offer. They planted seeds with the Primary 6 children, had a taster session of ‘Krav Maga’ which was delivered by Findlay’s Dad, listened to a talk from the Chemist, participated in a handwashing experiment, participated in ‘Enjoy-a-Ball’ with Hannah and enjoyed making and tasting fruit kebabs. We would like to say a special thank you to Findlay’s Dad for taking the time to come in and teach us new skills.
