We have received a lovely photo and message from these super prize winners’ family saying,
“Mrs Maxwell very kindly dropped off their prize from the bike art competition yesterday and the girls are delighted.
Thank you very much!”
Very well done both of you and thank you for sending this super photo.
Isaac’s family has been looking at the graduation video:
“Wow. Excellent video had me smiling and crying all at the same time. We had wonderful visits from Mrs Irving and Mrs Kirkpatrick yesterday which was a lovely surprise. Isaac has had so much fun, made friends and grown in so many ways at nursery. It’s been a pleasure to watch him turn into the little person he is becoming today. HUGE thank you to all in the raindrop room keep up the excellent work Hecklegirth Nursery. Xxx”
Thank you so much for such very kind comments. We all appreciate them enormously. We have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know all the children and their families too. Thank you,
After her visit yesterday from Mrs. Stott and Miss McVicar, Sophie asked if we could share this photo and video. Her family said,
“She’s so excited after visit from Mrs Stott and Miss Mcvicar! It’s really helped her look forward to starting p 1 as she was quite worried about it so it really was wonderful to see them. Thank you!”
Thank you so much Sophie for thinking of sending us your video and photo. We are delighted to hear that you are excited about Primary 1 and know that you will have a great time there.
Sophie G’s family enjoyed our graduation video (see below) for those moving to Primary 1:
“Ohhhh what a gorgeous video! Sophie has absolutely loved her time at nursery because of all the wonderful things you do there and seeing everyone having so much fun just made mummy cry 😭. What a sweet surprise to get a visit from Mrs Stott and Mrs Mcvicar too – Sophie is delighted with her shell and certificate. Happy nursery days and Max has it all to come- thank you! Xx”
We are delighted that you enjoyed it and we have to admit that a few of us shed a little tear when we watched it. Thank you so much for your very kind comments.
Sophie’s family has sent in a lovely activity suggestion that they are taking part in and would like to share with other families.
” There’s a wildlife census we can all fill in online from 1st July recording any sightings of these birds and creatures in our gardens in June. – Sophie and max are loving watching out for them all and learning lots about them different species and which ones come out at night for example they can now identify starlings, magpies, blackbirds, blue tits and are really excited to tick them off the list. “
This looks very interesting and certainly something that other families may enjoy. Thank you very much for sharing it. Happy bird watching everyone!
As we approach the end of our year in Nursery, it is disappointing that we will be unable to hold our graduation ceremony, due to the current situation. For children, parents and staff this is a great miss as we would have liked to mark the transition of our eldest children to Primary 1.
As a record of the time you have spent in Hecklegirth Nursery, we would like to share this video which includes all those moving to Primary 1 in various schools. We wish you and your families good health and lots of happiness in the future and know that you will all have great fun in Primary 1. “Reach for the Stars” all of you!
Briana’s family has sent some lovely photos of her busy outdoors. Briana has been growing her own flowers and carrots, as well as feeding the birds, so she has certainly been kept busy while Nursery has been closed. Very well done Briana and thank you so much for sharing your lovely photos. It’s great to hear from you.
Letters have recently been sent by the Early Years Team to inform you of your child’s place next school session in Early Learning and Childcare. We would like to remind you, if your child will be attending Hecklegirth, to please confirm your acceptance of this place to the school address
gw08officehecklegirt@ea.dumgal.sch.uk
We look forward to hearing from you.
Just look at the super teamwork happening here with some of the children from the Raindrop Room last term as they decided to create their own dinosaur. They had lots of discussion about what their dinosaur would look like and used a range of resources to create it. It was lovely to see them working so well together and they all had a sense of achievement once they had completed their work. Well done everyone involved.
Alfie H’s family has sent us a message:
“Alfie can’t wait to get back to nursery. He is missing all his friends and his teachers 😀”
We are missing you too Alfie, as well as all the other boys and girls. Your friends will be looking forward to seeing you again too no doubt. It’s lovely to hear from you.
