I wonder how many children have written letters to Santa? The children in the Raindrop Room have been writing to him recently.
However, this was not a letter with a big wish list but a letter telling Santa how they have been helpful and kind. If you click then click again on the images below, you will be able to read some wonderful letters. No wonder Santa paid us a visit with some parcels – what a lot of kind and helpful children we have.
Very well done to last week’s award winner. You thoroughly deserved your certificate.
Alfie L.’s family has been looking at the photos of the children playing in the “snow”:
“Loving Alfie’s pink coat !!!!”
Glad you like the high fashion for outdoor play. The children are usually just happy to get any coat or suit on to get outside.
Santa has been very busy lately and it seemed that he had visited the Raindrop Room on the same night as the Rainbow Room. Footprints were clearly in evidence in the role play area and a sack of parcels had been left there too. It seems that everyone in Hecklegirth Nursery is making Santa very happy. Once all the children had received their parcel from Santa, they realised that the snow machine had arrived in their outdoor area so great fun was had by all on this special day.
Further to the recent strange happenings overnight in our Nursery, when we started to realise that Santa and a fairy must have been calling in to check up on everyone, Tuesday brought even further excitement when snow greeted the children at the door in the Rainbow Room and some very suspicious snowy footprints were found near the Christmas tree. Some of the footprints were huge (Santa we thought) and some were much smaller which the children guessed perhaps belonged to a visiting elf.
It did not take long for the children to notice that a red sack had also been left near the tree and the children were delighted to find that each of them had been left a present by Santa. We decided that this must mean that everyone has been behaving very well and was making Santa happy. The fun did not stop there as the snow then returned in the garden so lots of children went out and had great fun in it. We hope that everyone enjoyed this fun day and that they are keeping up the super behaviour at home to make Santa happy.
The Rainbow Room children were recently lucky to enjoy the fun science activities that those in the Raindrop Room had experienced. Miss Ash, a Science teacher at Annan Academy, brought her STEM Ambassadors to support our children to engage in a range of experiments. It was unfortunate that so many missed this opportunity, due to illness, but those who participated had a fun learning experience and were encouraged to understand that they too can be scientists.
We would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to Miss Ash and her STEM Ambassadors for their time and patience. We hope that we can continue to enjoy shared experiences in the future to inspire our children to see science a possible future career.
We hope that, like us, you were very proud of all the children as they behaved and sang so beautifully in front of a big audience at our Christmas celebration on Monday. Huge thanks go to Mr. Higton and the United Reform Church for inviting us to their church and to the many family members who helped to make this a special occasion for the children who certainly proved to be ‘confident individuals’ in their performance.
We would also like to thank all those who donated to our super hampers and bought squares for them. A grand sum of £194 was raised which will be used for our children. There is a list of prize winners in Nursery and prizes can be collected today. Thank you so much for your support.
Just like those in the Rainbow Room, the Raindrop Room children had great fun at their party. Once they concluded with the conga, some seemed to run out of energy and a quiet afternoon with a film helped everyone to relax and recover.
A fun time was had by all at our Christmas parties with something for everyone, be it games, dancing or party food. The children looked wonderful in their party outfits and had a great morning together. Here is a snapshot of the party in the Rainbow Room.
Huge congratulations go to these recent award winners. We hope that you and your families are as proud as we are of your certificates.
