Treasured Memories

How lovely that Isaac W’s family left this message for us as we finish our Nursery year:

“Thank you Hecklegirth Nursery. Xx”

Mrs. Kirkpatrick also left a comment on our ‘Memories’ post:

“Hopefully we have all made fab memories x”

and left a message for Anthony about his super work,

“Aw what a super self portrait very well done Anthony. I look forward to seeing it displayed in your p1 class 🌈”

We hope that we have helped to create lots of memories for the children over the past year and that they might come back to look at our photos to help them think about everything they have experienced and achieved. We, as a staff, certainly greatly treasure those memories.

Precious Keepsake

Isaac W’s family has been looking at the photo of him with his certificate:

“Thank you Hecklegirth Nursery this is a precious keepsake I really did not want to miss. Isaac was chuffed with his visit from Mrs Irving. Isaac is going to miss his fun days at nursery. XxXxx”

It is sad that the children were not able to have their graduation but nice to hear that Isaac will still treasure his certificate. We are glad you had fun days in Nursery Isaac. Have a great holiday.

Messages From Mrs. Irving

Mrs. Irving has been looking at all the recent posts on our blog and has left some messages:

“Anthony, I love your self-portrait. What a super artist you are. How exciting it will be to see it displayed is school when you begin Primary 1.”

She loves the photos with the graduation certificates:

“How lovely it is to see all of these wee smiling faces! I can’t wait to hear about your adventures in Primary 1 where I know you will be awesome! 🙂 “

Mrs. Irving was delighted to see the photos of the bike art prize winners:

“Congratulations Freya and Jasmine! 🙂 🙂”

She also loved Sophie’s activity suggestion:

“What a super idea Sophie. We have been loving watching the birds and other wildlife in our garden and when out walking during lockdown. Last week we were really excited to see two beautiful deer on our walk.”

Mrs. Irving, like all of us, just loved the graduation video of all the children moving on to Primary 1:

“Watching this video has me grinning like a cheshire cat. How lucky we are to spend our days playing and having fun with these bright wee buttons. A big thanks to all of our families for sharing your children with us xxx”

So Excited!

Anthony’s family has been looking at our photos and left a lovely message:

“Aww Anthony was so excited when Mrs Irving came to see him and give him his certificate and his shell to decorate. He was super excited to draw his self portrait. all the nursery staff are just amazing thank you for having Anthony in your class.”

Thank you so much. We have loved seeing Anthony’s progress in his time with us and hope that he has a wonderful time in Primary 1 when the time comes.

Good Luck

We have messages to share from some of the Nursery staff who have been looking at the certificate photos.

Mrs. Kirkpatrick said,

“Aw this is delightful seeing the happy faces, well done everyone and good luck in P1. Mrs Kirkpatrick xxx”

She also wanted to pass on her congratulations to the bike art prize winners,

“Well done Freya and Jasmine x”

Mrs. Maxwell also left a message,

“Good luck to all the boys and girls going to p.1. It was lovely being able to visit some of you x”

Miss Fleming too wants to send you her best wishes,

“It is lovely to see all those smiling faces. Congratulations everyone on your Nursery Graduation. You will all be missed in Nursery. The very best of luck in Primary 1. You will all do amazing! ⭐”

We will certainly miss them all and send them our very best wishes.

Prize Winners

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.

Smiling And Crying

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,

Happy Nursery Days

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.

Alfie

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.

We Are Missing You

Mrs. Kirkpatrick has enjoyed seeing our most recent photos of Robin and his bird feeder:

“I’m sure the birds will love this Robin x”

and of Luca’s photo with his letter,

“This made me smile 😊 I’m so pleased that you are all delighted to have received a letter from your key worker , we are all missing you x”

It is certainly lovely to hear how much you have valued your letters and that some of you are planning to keep them as a memory of these times.
