Olivia’s family enjoyed Eileen’s activities on Friday:
“Thank you Eileen, we had a fabulous time! The leaf lamp takes pride of place on our fire place. We also made a huge batch of chocolate sparklers today that Olivia gave out to her family to celebrate bonfire night, although ate quite a few herself!! š”
These chocolate sparklers seem to have been very popular. That was a nice idea Olivia to make them for your family – I’m sureĀ they enjoyed them as much as you did.
Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, organised more sessions of her Autumn Make and Take activities on Friday. We hope that all these families enjoyed themselves as much as those earlier in the week. It has been lovely to see so many taking part.
We have another lovely comment aboutĀ the recentĀ ‘Autumn Make and Take’ activity:
Lily really enjoyed the family learning and said āwhen is the next one going to be!ā
We are glad that Lily enjoyed herself and hope that Eileen will be able to organise another Family Learning activity in the near future.
Two more families have left comments about the Family Learning ‘Autumn Make and Take’ activity this week.
“Callum and I would like to say thank you to Eileen for an excellent day of making and taking. ( I have to say Eileen hasnt changed a bit since I was last there ) She still looks fab!š¤š
Callum couldnāt wait to take it home to show his dad and sisters. We have already made some more of the chocolate treats at home.”
“Bethany loved making the leaf lamps and the chocolate sparkles. We have continued to make these at home”
It sounds like lots of chocolate sparklers will be made in Annan this weekend.
Eileen also left a comment after her ‘Make and Take’ activities:
“It was lovely to see everyone at the make and take sessions this week. I know that lots of you are going to make chocolate sparklers this weekend-enjoy”.
Thank you again Eileen for all your hard work. Everyone seems to have had a great time.
Bethany and Quinn’s families have been looking at the photos of Hallowe’en.
Ā “Bethany loves dressing up and looks happy with the other kids. She loves coming to nursery”
“Too cute! The 3 amigos. We are so proud of the friendships Quinn is forming at nursery. Xx”
It is lovely to see the children growing in confidence and developing friendships.
We would like to welcome Miss Ashleigh Calvert to our Nursery on placement. She is a fourth year B.A. (Hons) student in Childhood Studies at the University of West Scotland.
Miss Calvert will be here for the next week or two and then will return in February for her final placement. She has enjoyed getting to know the children this week and is looking forward to the rest of her time with us.
Several families have kindly left comments on our photos. Summer’s Granny has been looking at the lovely photo of Summer with her recent certificate:
“We are very proud of Summer.”
How lovely Summer to make your family so proud. We are proud of your achievements too.
Ava and Neve’sĀ Mums have been looking at the photos of the Family Learning make and take activities:
“Ava and mummy had great fun at the make and take. Ava especially liked making the chocolate sparklers.”
So that’s what the chocolate fingers were for Ava. Maybe you could make some chocolate sparklers at home?
“me and Neve had a great time making these lanterns Neve puts it on every night.”
The lanterns did look good. I’m sure your home looks cosy with your lovely new lamp Neve.
Lots of children and their families tried out our Family Learning ‘Make and Take’ on Tuesday. Scissors, glue, Autumn leaves and chocolate fingers were on the tables when I popped in and it looked there was lots of super concentration going on as the children created their little Autumn lamps. Thank you so much to Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, for organising this lovely activity. We hope that those attending Friday’s sessions have good fun too.
Several families have been enjoying looking at the photos from Hallowe’en.
