Thank You Tesco

We would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to Tesco for their recent generous donation for our planter on the High Street. Mrs. Kirkpatrick kindly wrote to ask for their help and Edith invited her to collect this lovely selection which we hope will blossom over the summer to brighten up the High Street for everyone in the town.
Thanks also go to Mrs. Kirkpatrick and Mrs. Gray for taking the time to plant and water the new plants in our planter. We are sure that everyone will appreciate your efforts and look forward to seeing the plants grow and flower over the next few months. Why not take a walk with your family to see what a good job they have done?

Looking After Our Plants

James and Lily have been visiting our planter on the High Street and their family told us that they have been learning about keeping the flowers alive and what they need to grow.
How kind of you both to water our plants Lily and James. Some of the Nursery staff have been trying to care for them in the hot weather and it’s great to know that we have such super helpers. Thank you so much and thank you for sharing your photos. We love to see you all. Keep up the good work!

Alfie’s Pizza

It was lovely to hear from Alfie’s family that, just like Kyla, they too are out on painted rock hunts. We love these super photos that Alfie sent us and his Mum explained what they had been doing.

“After a walk hunting for painted rocks this one gave Alfie the idea for dinner. We made our own pizza dough & sauce then Alfie decorated his pizza with lots of vegetables to look like himself. “

I wonder who left that painted stone that inspired you? Your pizza looks absolutely delicious Alfie and it looks just like you. What great skills you are learning to be making your own dough too. Very well done and thank you so much for telling us all about your adventures. It’s great to hear from you.

Annan High Street

After last term’s visit to the High Street, which we shared in a recent post, the children used their photos to create their own version of Annan High Street. Initially they made pencil drawings of the buildings they saw then they developed this further by creating models based on their photos and drawings.
We think the end result speaks for itself when you see their super buildings, road and cars travelling along their High Street. Just look at the concentration on those faces! Great work everyone!

Click on photos to make them bigger. I wonder if anyone has used junk to make models at home? We would love to hear about it if you have.

Thank You Isaac

Mrs. Irving would like to share this message for Isaac W.:

“I was overwhelmed this morning with the kindness of Isaac and his Daddy as they dropped some delicious home baking at my door. What a generous and thoughtful act of kindness! Isaac, you have brought a huge smile to my face. Scott, Eve, Coll and I all say a big thank you!”

How lovely to hear about such kindness in our community. Isaac, your baking looks absolutely delicious and we are sure that Mrs. Irving and her family will thoroughly enjoy it. You should feel very proud of yourself for being so thoughtful and kind.

Kyla’s Super Work

Kyla has been very busy at home doing lots and lots of arts and crafts which she is thoroughly enjoying. She has loved creating her own designs to decorate these stones which we think are beautiful. Watch out for these special stones if you’re out with your family as Kyla is planning to hide them when she goes out a walk.
Thank you so much Kyla for sharing a photo of your super work which we love and for being so kind in leaving your stones for other girls and boys to find. We hope that everyone has fun looking for your beautiful stones.

Thank You Mrs. Kirkpatrick

I wonder if any of you have been checking up on the Nursery planter on the High Street when you have gone out for a walk? Mrs. Kirkpatrick has been very busy tidying it up and taking out all the weeds to keep it looking healthy and beautiful for anyone walking past. We think that she has done a super job and that the planter is looking lovely.

Thank you very much Mrs. Kirkpatrick from everyone for all your hard work. We hope that lots of Nursery children and their families enjoy having a look at our planter when out for a walk.

Learning About Our Community

As part of learning about our local community, some of the children from the Rainbow Room took their cameras to the High Street last term to record photos of a range of different buildings.
Discussing their personal experiences and the purpose of each building, they were then able to share their findings with their peers. Of course, while on the High Street they took the opportunity to look after our planter too.
We think that the children’s photos are super and that they showed great skills in using the cameras.
I wonder if any of the children can recognise the buildings from their photos and do they know what these buildings are used for?
