Niamh’s family is delighted with her recent award:
“Niamh was so pleased to get her certificate. We are very proud of her and she has put it in her “memories” book to look back on as she grows up.”
What a lovely idea to have a “memories” book – it’s nice to think that Niamh will have her certificate to look back on her time in Nursery. I wonder what other people do if they get a certificate?
Callum’s family has left a comment about the Primary 6 buddies:
“Callum’s really enjoying getting to know his buddy. A great idea.”
The children all seem to be enjoying getting to know each other. We’re glad that parents feel that the buddy system is a helpful support for children moving to Primary 1.
As promised, here are some photos of the Primary 6 buddies in the Sunshine Room meeting the Nursery children and some of their families when they came to deliver their introductory letters. Thank you for all your super work Primary 6 – we are sure that our parents appreciate your efforts. We look forward to you taking the Nursery children to the playground soon.

Two of our families have commented on the lovely photos of the children enjoying various activities out in the sunshine last week.
“It was lovely to have some sunshine last week , both the girls look like there really enjoying painting together outside.”
“The fun in the sun photos are lovely, it’s interesting seeing the staff and children doing lots of different activities. Keira looks as if she’s concentrating the paintings she brings home are lovely.”
Thank you for leaving us your comments. The children do love painting outdoors.
Emma’s family enjoyed her photo playing in the sun last week:
“Looking cool in the garden. Emma loves playing outside and it’s been great that we’ve had some sunshine so the kids can enjoy fun times outside.”
Let’s hope that the sun remembers to come back soon!
The family of one of our children who started this week has been looking at our blog:
“Brogan has settled in fine at nursery and seems to be enjoying his time here and also making new friends as well as playing and learning”
We are glad that Brogan is enjoying his start to Nursery life. Thank you for leaving us a comment. We hope that you continue to enjoy visiting the blog to see what’s happening in Nursery.
For those parents who have been using our English language programme to develop their child’s communication skills, I have now added books nine and ten to our blog. They can be found if you click on the link on the right that says “Learning English”. Although initially intended for children with English as an Additional Language, this programme could be useful for any children who need a little help and encouragement to develop their language skills. We hope that these new books are useful to support your child’s learning at home.
Sophie’s Mum has been looking at the photos of the eggs the children decorated for the Easter competition:
“sophie loved making these easter chicks it was great fun”
We thought that there were so many fantastic eggs, it must have been very difficult to choose a winner. We were delighted that so many of our families took part and we hope that you all enjoyed doing this together at home.
We hope that everyone is enjoying their Easter holiday and that you are looking forward to returning to Nursery on Monday 20th April for the new term. It will be lovely to see all our children and their families again and we are looking forward to welcoming three new children to Nursery. No doubt they will be excited to start with us and we are sure that all our families will make them feel welcome. We will see you all on Monday.
We have had a lovely message from Joe’s family:
“Thank you all, children and staff for a magical 3/4 of a year !! Joe is missing you all very much especially playing out side too , hope to keep in touch take care Joe and his family x”
We would love it if you kept in touch Joe and hope that you have great fun at your new school.
