Thom’s family had an interesting update on the butterflies that we released:
“Thom was very excited to see the butterfly still sitting on the flower when we returned to pick up Sophie at 3pm!”
That is surprising. Just as well we decided to go back in to Nursery after a while or we could have had a long wait. Perhaps they were just very happy where we left them?
As promised, here are photos of the children from the Rainbow Room enjoying taking part in our “Share a Story Month” activity. They too had fun searching for all the objects that Granny bought in the story “Granny Went To Market” and enjoyed the bells and drums as much as the children in the Sunshine Room did. Thank you to Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, for organising this lovely activity and to those parents who were able to join us.
To celebrate “Share a Story Month” we recently held a family learning event where we had great fun telling the story of “Granny Went To Market”, with the children developing their learning across several areas of the curriculum.
All the children took part in the story telling which involved finding a number on the globe to show us the different countries Granny visited and then finding the items from the story hidden in the Nursery. As you can see, the children particularly loved experimenting with the bells and drums that they found, making little bands once the story was finished. We hope that those parents who joined us enjoyed this celebration of storytelling as much as we did. Here are some photos of the children in the Sunshine Room taking part. We will post photos of the Rainbow Room soon.
We have had another lovely comment about our P6 buddies from Aoife’s family:
“Aoife has loved visiting the playground with her buddy Lauren and she also gets to see her big sister Freya when she’s out. Thank you so much to Lauren for looking after her, it lets us parents know they’re being well looked after.”
It’s great to hear that Aoife has been enjoying her visits. Well done Lauren. I know that Aoife looks forward to your visits.
One of the parents of our buddies has been looking at the photos of the older children helping our children in the playground:
“Best foot forward lovely to see and her wee buddy”
We think that some good relationships are being formed to support our children’s transition to Primary 1. Primary 6 are really showing themselves to be responsible citizens.
Mollie’s family is delighted that she has Lois as her buddy:
“Thank you Lois for looking after Mollie so well! 😊”
All those buddies are really doing a super job. I’m sure Lois will be delighted with your comment.
Thom’s Mum has left us a lovely comment about our Fun Activity Day:
“It was a great morning, so proud of all the children…I certainly would find it difficult to do all of the activities they did in front of such a big audience. Its a great way to develop their confidence. The medals were a great idea too. Thanks to all the staff, it must take a lot of organisation and chatting to other parents, everyone seems very impressed and it went well beyond expectations. Thank you.”
Thank you so much for your kind comments. You are right, the children did show great confidence to perform in front of a large audience – they were little stars. Thanks also must go to all the family and friends who encouraged the children so much.
Two people have left comments on our Fun Activity Day photos. Mrs. Gray said,
“Well done to all the boys and girls on great teamwork at Sports Day. I am proud of you all.”
Dylan’s family also enjoyed the day:
“We thoroughly enjoyed coming to watch Dylan and all his friends at their fun activity day yesterday, they all done extremely well and looked lyk they all enjoyed themselves,.we are so proud of Dylan and was good to see how confident he was. Thankyou for a lovely enjoyable morning, all the kids and staff done well “
It was lovely to see the children so happy and confident.
Thank you to everyone who braved the distinctly chilly weather to cheer on the children in their Fun Activity event today. We are sure that, like us, you felt very proud of them all as they confidently showed off their skills and great teamwork. We managed to capture photos of some of the groups with those well deserved medals, presented by Mrs. Alexander, and an ice lolly finished off our day nicely. We hope that you enjoyed the day as much as we did. Well done boys and girls – you really showed yourselves to be ‘confident individuals’.
Isaac and his Mummy enjoyed the visit to the police station:
“We had a great time at the police station. Isaac especially liked switching the sirens on and off in the van.”
Those sirens and the blue lights were very popular!
