Super Snowmen
Look at the super snowmen we made at home with our families. Do you like our wonderful efforts?
Annan Museum visit
The children all seemed to enjoy the recent Christmas craft workshop at Annan Museum. We hope you liked the cards, decorations and clay snowmen the children brought home. We’d like to say a big thank you to those parents who helped us and to Annan Museum staff who made us feel very welcome and provided all the wonderful materials.
Operation Christmas Child
Nursery and Primary 1 worked together recently to fill boxes for the Operation Christmas Child appeal.
Children and staff were all touched by Mrs. Jardine’s visit when she told us about delivering the boxes to children who have so little compared to us. Her photos, stories and DVD seemed to have a genuine impact on the children.
One of our Mums, Mrs. Simpson, kindly organised our box filling day which was great fun with Nursery, Primary 1 and parents all working together. As well as Mrs. Simpson’s gifts, we had generous contributions from other families which made our efforts particularly impressive.
The most exciting part of this activity for the children seemed to be loading the boxes into the van, ready to be sent on their way. Everyone helped to carry the boxes outside and the children all blew a kiss into the van to wish “Merry Christmas” to the children receiving the boxes.
We would like to thank all those who helped to make this a very worthwhile experience for the children.
Welcome!
Welcome to Hecklegirth Nursery. We look forward to sharing our learning with you and listening to your comments in a new and exciting way. We hope to share photos and samples of our activities on this blog.
