Joe H’s Mum has been talking about what he enjoys in Nursery:
“Joe’s favourite activity at nursery is outdoor play. He enjoys getting messy and creative in the garden. Joe says he can’t wait to play in the snow!!!!!!!!”
The outdoors area is great fun and Joe loves it. I can imagine how you’re feeling about the snow Joe but I’m not sure we want it just yet. I wonder what other children enjoy best in Nursery?
Thursday saw our first Family Learning event of the year and we are delighted that a good number of children and their families took part.
Eileen, our Family Learning Co-ordinator, provided materials for the children to design and decorate canvas squares which she will put together to make a wall hanging for the Family Room. Well done to everyone who helped to add to the hanging – you will see it on display whenever you go to the Family Room. Thank you also to Eileen for organising this activity for everyone. Here are some of the busy artists at work with their families.

Remember the lovely photo of Sophie’s sunflower that she planted last year in Nursery? Her Mum has sent us a message:
“Thanks for putting the photo up, she looks so proud! I must say to Eileen too that the corn seed she gave us to plant has grown out the roof of my Dads greenhouse and had actually got a corn on the cob on it we are just wondering when it will be ready to pick and eat!!
Its all been very exciting! such a nice idea so thanks to you all!”
We will pass the message on to Eileen thank you. Family Learning is starting again for Nursery parents tomorrow, September 4th, so we hope that everyone this year enjoys Eileen’s activities as much as our parents from last year.
Callum’s Mum enjoyed his photo showing us the rules:
“We asked Callum about this photo and he said “we have walking legs in nursery not running ones”. He also told us that he has to help tidy up toys. Hope this happens at home?”
Well done Callum! It sounds like you’ve got a good idea of what the rules are. We hope that you are continuing the good tidying up at home to help your Mum and Dad.
Another sunflower from last year has grown successfully. Sophie’s Mum sent us a photo in her garden with a message.
“Sophie wanted to show nursery her sunflower, it has grow up to her chin and when we got home from Spain it had flowered too! We are very pleased its grown as we aren’t very good at gardening usually! Missing you all but enjoying primary 1.”
Well done Sophie! That’s a super sunflower. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying Primary 1.
It’s great to see that another family has left a comment on our post showing the children playing:
“Orla is really concentrating there!! Glad she is enjoying nursery as is Emma. Looking forward to seeing how much they develop over the coming months. Lovely nursery and lovely staff.”
Thank you for your kind comments. We are looking forward to getting to know all the children and to seeing how they develop too.
Joe and Callum’s parents have enjoyed seeing the first pictures of their children on the blog and have kindly left us lovely comments:
“Joe is loving his time at his new nursery. His favourite toys so far is the farm set. Looking forward to more pictures and news !”
“Was so lovely to see Callum’s picture. We are so happy at how Callum has settled in.”
We are delighted to hear that Joe and Callum are enjoying Nursery. Thank you for taking the time to leave comments. We would love to hear from lots of parents and will continue to add more photos and news as the weeks progress.
Last term the children planted sunflower seeds in Nursery and took them home so that they could care for them. Some children brought them back in to show us once they had started to sprout and they seemed to be doing a super job of looking after their little plants. Mollie was telling us today that her sunflower had grown lots over the summer and her Mum has sent us a photo to share with everyone. Well done Mollie! You have looked after your sunflower really well. I wonder if anyone else has a photo of their sunflower?
Those parents who were not able to collect their child’s uniform order from the school office today, can collect it from Nursery staff tomorrow, 20th August, when they bring their child for their first session. We are looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow and hope that the children are excited about starting Nursery.
Mollie’s Mum enjoyed our graduation and has commented on our photos:
“So proud of Mollie, she has fitted in so well at Nursery! Well done to all the children and good luck to the ones moving to P1!”
They did all do so well at graduation and we join Mollie’s Mum in wishing everyone best wishes for Primary 1 if they are leaving Nursery.
