Sophie’s family is delighted to see her photo with the award she received for being a super team worker:
“sophie was chuffed to bits to win this award we are all very proud of her we have her photo blown up and put onto the wall, she will miss all her nursery teachers very much but is really looking forward to starting p1”
Well done Sophie – you really deserved this award. We will miss all those moving to Primary 1 too but hope that we will see you at some point in the future.
Mrs. Alexander and Mr. Palmer got a big surprise when some of the children visited them last week to say thank you for all their help in Nursery and for making graduation a special occasion. Well done boys and girls for a lovely thank you – you made Mrs. Alexander and Mr. Palmer very proud of you.
Just as in the morning, the afternoon children showed themselves to be confident individuals at their graduation ceremony on Tuesday and we loved the happy smiles on everybody’s face. We would like to thank Mr. Palmer for presenting the children with their certificates and for taking the time to ensure that every family was able to get a photo of their child on stage. Thank you also to all the family and friends who formed a great audience – we really appreciate your support.

How proud we all were of the children at our graduation ceremonies yesterday as they sang and danced to celebrate their achievements this year in Nursery. The morning children looked particularly grown-up in the fantastic caps that Theo’s Mum kindly made for every single child. No doubt these will be fond mementos to keep as a reminder of a special day so huge thanks to Theo’s Mummy for all her hard work.
The children showed great confidence to perform to their families and then to walk on stage on their own to shake hands and receive their certificates. Thank you to Mrs. Alexander for taking time to present each child with their award – we think her knees must have been very sore by the end of the day. Thank you also to all the family and friends who attended our little ceremony and for your support throughout the year.
Here is a gallery of the morning children. I will put photos of the afternoon children on as soon as possible. Click the click again for a clearer view of the photos.
Lewis’ family has been having a look at the photos from our trip to Dino Park:
“Lewis looks like he’s loving every second of Dino Park! What a wonderful day he had.”
“Thank you for organising such a fun day! Lewis had a ball!”
Thank you for your kind comment. I think we all thoroughly enjoyed our little outing.
Move Up afternoon seems to have been a great success for those Nursery children moving to Primary 1 at Hecklegirth. If you click on the link to the school website on the right you will be able to see some super photos of the children in their new classrooms. Simply click on the Primary 1 and Primary 2/1 links once on the school blog.
The children were keen to tell us all about their exciting afternoon – here are some of their comments.
Theo: I liked playing with the garage mat and cars with the girls.
Joe: I liked the stories Miss Campbell was reading.
Zander: I liked everything. Painting was the best.
Suzie: it was brilliant. Miss Campbell is very kind.
Conan: One of the girls was reading loads of books to me and Mrs. Lindsay was helping everybody.
Jessica: I liked the play dough.
Niamh: I liked Miss Campbell. She was helping me with drawing.
Charlie: I liked the beanbags – you needed to find a letter on them.
Mikey: it was good for drawing.
Isaac: I played on the Wii.
Keira M.: I liked best of all playing with the hospital and the train set.
Callum: we read a book about a woman that swallowed a fly. Mrs. Lindsay’s good.
Fay: it was fun. I liked all the new things.
We were delighted to welcome our new Depute Head Teacher Mr. Palmer to Hecklegirth Primary last week. Mr. Palmer has already been very busy in the Nursery and we all look forward to working with him in the months and years ahead.
Children moving to several local schools had an opportunity this week to sample a school lunch. At Hecklegirth parents joined their children who enjoyed hot dogs and chips or a delicious sandwich along with fruit or a little bag of vegetables. The ice-cream and jelly dessert looked particularly tasty and seemed to go down well with most children. Hopefully, everyone now knows what happens in the dinner hall and is looking forward to their school lunches when they come to Primary 1 in August.
Mrs. Alexander and Mr. Palmer were both delighted to receive graduation invitations recently from Nursery children. Lots of them had made a contribution to the cards, either through drawings or writing and they looked super. We look forward to seeing everyone at graduation on Tuesday. Please remember to return your slip indicating how many seats you would like to ensure that the hall is set up for everyone.
