We hope that lots of our children will take part in this week’s competition to hard boil and decorate an egg. Entries can be brought in to Nursery on Monday 26th and Tuesday 27th March to add to the whole school display. There will be prizes for the best egg in various groups and ours will be in the Nursery and Primary 1 section. Adults have their own section so the grown ups in your family can have a go too. Have fun decorating your eggs everyone – we look forward to seeing them soon.

Easter Art
As the children started to think about Easter at the end of last term, some experimented in the craft area to design their own eggs and create Spring flowers. We thought we would share a few examples with you this Easter weekend. Click then click again on the photos to see the names of the artists.
Easter Crafts
A few more families joined Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, on Friday to make Easter crafts and they seemed to have good fun, just like those earlier in the week. Here you can see them busy making Easter bowls and pop-up bunnies. Thank you, as always, to Eileen for a great family activity session and to all those parents and grandparents who took part.
Family Easter Crafts
Tuesday saw the first Family Learning sessions to make Easter bowls and pop-up bunnies. It was lovely to see Mums, Dads, aunties and grandparents all joining the children, as well as little brothers and sisters, for the ‘make and take’ activities.
Thank you to Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, for providing a super activity for families to enjoy together and thank you also to everyone who came along. The next sessions are on Friday 17th March at 9.00-9.45 or 2.15 – 3.00. We hope that you have fun.

Easter Bunny Visit
Lots of Fun
Some of our families have been looking at the photos of the egg decorating competition:
Olivia’s family said, “We had lots of fun turning Olivia’s boiled eggs into her baby sister and baby cousin!!”
Neve’s family had fun too: “Neve loved making the easter bunny eggs was great fun”
It really is amazing how many different things a boiled egg can be turned into. We thought that they were all super.
Eggs-ellent Eggs!
What a lot of fantastic eggs appeared from our Nursery children for the decorated boiled egg competition! It was great to see that so many children and their families had worked together at home on this fun Easter activity and the Nursery/Primary 1 tables were full of lots of creative ideas. Well done to the Primary 1 winner and to Cormac from Nursery who was the runner-up in our category but a huge thanks and well done to everyone who took the time to enter the competition. We thought that your eggs were amazing!
Easter Art
With the Easter holiday fast approaching, some of the children have been experimenting to make their own Easter art in the art and craft area. Here is a selection from the Sunshine Room. We love that the children have all had their own ideas to add to their display.

Easter Crafts
Easter craft activities were very popular last week with children and their families as Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, organised some fun with coloured paper, glue and pipe cleaners. It was great to see lots of children and their families take part. Thanks, as always, to Eileen – we are sure that everyone enjoyed your super activities.
