Harli’s Mum made a photo comment on one of our trip photos:
“What a brilliant pic! Harli really enjoyed herself and was very tired on monday night after all the running about at Farmers Den!”
They do look very happy in that picture, don’t they? It’s not surprising that she was tired after her day out – what a lot of running about they all did.
Our recent end of year outing to the cinema followed by lunch and a play session at Farmer’s Den seemed to be very popular with both the morning and the afternoon children. Thank you to all those parents who came with us as volunteers and to staff at the cinema and Farmer’s Den who made us feel very welcome. The children certainly seemed suitably exhausted at the end of their busy day.
Last week’s sunshine and showers seemed to bring a sudden spurt of growth in our vegetable garden. The children have been excited to see the little courgettes starting to form and all the other vegetables which are showing great progress. Well done children and all those parents who helped in this project – you’ve obviously got great gardening skills. Thank you also to Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, for providing us with all our equipment and for organising this project. It’s been great fun and a super learning experience.

Primary 6 are delighted that the Nursery children and their parents are pleased with their buddying skills. Harli’s Mum has added a comment which will please Chloe:
“It makes us very happy as parents to know theres an extra friendly face looking out for Harli as she starts “big school”, she’s already been watching out to see if she can spot Chloe in the playground in the morning and has taken great pride in telling friends and family about her buddy.”
Today art aprons went up to Primary 6 with the children so you could ask them at home what they were doing. We thought it was about time we put up a few more photos of the children with their buddies so here are some from one of their visits to the playground.
We have had two more photo comments about our buddy activities. One is from Finlay’s Mum:
“I would just like to say thank you to Finlay’s Buddy Lauren, Finlay is extremely happy that you are his buddy and I think it is a great idea for Nursery children/parents to meet their buddies before moving into P1. Well done to all P6 for taking on this role, I am sure you will all do a brilliant job.”
Zak, one of our Primary 6 buddies, has also added a lovely comment:
“Me and my cute buddy Abbi we have had great fun with each other throughout the activities that have been prepared by my wonderful teacher Mrs Johnson. :-)”
Thank you everyone for all your feedback and keep up the good work Primary 6.
Our mud pie photos have brought a smile to everyone’s faces. Ollie’s Dad commented:
“Wow that looks amazing. Brings back many memories. Simple things……”
Imogen’s Mum seems to agree:
“Great outdoor activity! Looks like lots of fun.”
It certainly was fun and, as you can see, the children were engrossed with their mud pies for a long time.
You can’t beat making mud pies on a summer’s day. Here is our very busy team of cooks in their outdoor kitchen last week. No doubt mud pie making brings back a few happy memories for some of us.
Kyle’s Mum has made a comment on one of our photos:
“Kyle is enjoying having a buddy he likes to go up to p6 and doing activities with noah. I think having a buddy will help kyle to move into p1 more easier.”
We’re glad that Kyle’s having fun. No doubt his buddy will do his best to make sure that he does everything he can to help Kyle settle into Primary 1.
Some of Primary 6 have been enjoying looking at our blog again.
Ashley said, “WOW even if I am not in a picture yet this blog is amazing! I have looked at all the pictures and they are spectacular. I just want to say thank you for putting these great photos on!”
Taylor commented on our photos saying,
“I had a great day, spending time with my two cute buddies Danny and Calise.:)”
and
“Me covering for Nathan with his Buddie Mishca! I had a great time.”
We’re glad that you’re enjoying looking at our blog and well done for making comments. Hopefully we will have more photos to put up soon.
These were our caterpillars when they were very small but, as you know, they got bigger and bigger quite quickly. The exciting news now is that they have grown their cocoons and have been transferred to the nets. Hopefully, one day soon we will arrive in Nursery to see our beautiful butterflies emerging.
