After missing their initial visit to Annan library two weeks ago due to poor weather conditions, the children in the Sunshine Room finally got their chance to visit the library on Monday. They displayed super behaviour and listened well to the stories that Tina had chosen for them. Thank you to the kind Mummy, Daddy and Granny who made our trip possible by coming with us. We look forward to our next visit soon.
Owen’s Dad went to the Annan library with us on our first visit and left a comment to say how much he enjoyed it.
“Lovely morning spent with the kids at the library, the kids were very well mannered and well behaved. Owen really enjoyed the stories, Marion told them really well, she made it fun!”
We agree that Marion is a great storyteller. Thank you very much for coming with us. We hope that you’ll be free another Monday to join us. Well done boys and girls for being so polite and well behaved – we were very proud of you.
Ben’s family has been looking at the photos of our recent library visit:
“Ben really enjoyed visiting the library with his nursery friends and teachers. In the holidays he likes to stay at his Grandma’s house in Waterbeck because the library van stops right outside her house and he gets to go in the van and choose some books.”
That sounds really exciting Ben! What a lovely treat when you’re at Grandma’s house to have the library come to you.
Thom and his Mum left a comment on our visit to Annan library:
“We enjoyed our Library visit, our books were due back that week and Thom was extremely pleased to find the book Marion read to us, ‘we love you hugless Douglas’ and guess what? It’s at our house now, we’ve read it a few times to Daddy and Sophie!”
It was a great book and everyone listened well to that one. I hope that Daddy and Sophie enjoyed it too Thom. It was lucky that it was still there when you went back. Thank you to your Mum for coming along to the library. It’s great to have parents with us.
Two of our parents have been looking at the post about our visit to the library.
“Thank u for giving the children this great opportunity for good link with the library. Dylan loves books and always loves going to the library and he thinks it’s great that he is getting to go with nursery too. After his first visit with nursery he asked to go and get the monster truck book he had a look at when he went with nursery “
I hope the monster truck book was there when you went back to the library Dylan? You are lucky going there with your family and Nursery.
“Kacey really enjoyed her library visit ,the only complaint she had was the chairs are to low for the table and she couldn’t see her book! Good job Owens daddy was there to read it to her..x”
Next time we go to the library we’ll have to find you a better seat Kacey but it was kind of Owen’s Dad to help you out.
To further develop links with our wider community, we have begun to visit Annan library on a Monday. Each room will visit on alternate weeks to build their literacy skills and become familiar with our local library. We apologise to those in the Sunshine Room who were expecting to go on their first visit today but we really felt that the high winds made this a safety issue for the children. Hopefully we will be able to make a visit soon.
Last week the Rainbow Room made their first visit and the children seemed to thoroughly enjoy the experience. Marion made us very welcome and explained to the children that they could come to the library with their families to borrow books. She read us some super stories which engaged the children and they then had the opportunity to choose books to share with adults and other children. We hope that you love these photos as much as we do – it’s great to see our children so engaged with books.
We would like to thank those parents who came with us on our first visit and those who have kindly volunteered to join us in the future. We really appreciate your support and look forward to lots of parents being part of our visits. Well done also to the children for their super behaviour – Marion was very impressed with you all and is looking forward to our next visit.
