Lovely Photo
The family of one of your youngest new children has been looking at his photo playing outdoors:
“Lovely photo of Alfie. He looks so happy.”
It is great how quickly these children have grown in confidence in such a short time.
Settling In
Nancy’s Mum is pleased to see photos of her as she settles in to her first few weeks of Nursery:
“Aw my baby girl. She has settled in very well & loves being at Nursery 😊.
Nancy looks like she’s concentrating hard in this photo 😀 x”
It is surprising how quickly the new children have settled into the routines of Nursery. Thanks go to all the parents and carers for their help with this.
Well Done Everyone
Joshua’s family has been looking through lots of our photos and has left us some lovely comments:
“Good job to all on your decorations. I loved the one Joshua made 😊.”
When looking at a photo of the Christmas celebration, Joshua’s family said,
“Well done to all the children singing your Christmas songs. Great performers. You were all superb! 😊”
Thank you for your kind comments. It’s great to know that our families look at our blog.
Speech and Language Advice
We now have the dates of various drop-in sessions organised by the Speech and Language Therapy department. They are providing workshops for parents/carers entitled “Early Language Drop-in”, “Speech Sounds Drop-in” and “Communication Problem Solving Drop-in”. We have leaflets displayed in Nursery on the middle door between the two areas – these explain the details of what is involved in each of these workshops at both Annan or Lockerbie and what the dates are for the sessions.
Speech and Language Therapy also provide an advice line on 01387 220013 which is available every Wednesday from 2.00 until 4.00.
This is a very valuable service which we hope will be useful to you. Please speak to staff for any advice about this opportunity.
Settled In
One of our new parents has been looking at the recent photos of the children enjoying their first few days in Nursery:
“Lovely to see them settled in and playing nicely together!”
It seems surprising that they have only been in Nursery a few days but they are already looking happy and relaxed. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. We love to hear from everyone.
“Dates For Your Diary” Update
We have updated the “Dates for your Diary” section on the right under “Support Information” to highlight this term’s important dates in red. Simply click and scroll for details and keep an eye on this section throughout the term as we will continue to update it when we have any further dates for your diary.
New Term
Tomorrow, Thursday 4th January, will be the start of term and we are looking forward to seeing everyone again, along with the twelve new children who will also be getting ready for their first day. We hope that they are excited to be starting Nursery and are looking forward to making new friends. No doubt everyone will make them feel welcome and we hope that this is the beginning of a happy experience for the children and their families.
Our morning session will have a soft start, as usual, between 8.45 and 9.10. The afternoon session will begin at 12.15. We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow.
Family Learning
Thanks go to Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, for providing super Christmas activities for children and their families to enjoy together at the end of term. We hope that they have added to the festive feel of your homes over the holidays and that those who took part had fun together.
Parents Early Education Partnership
Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, has been doing some PEEP (Parents Early Education Partnership) activities with our families from the Sunshine Room and their most recent session involved making feely bags using lots of glitter and sparkles. Adults and children alike found this a great session so thank you Eileen for arranging another fun activity.
