Star Comments

Our two Star Award winners have received lovely comments from their families this week:

“We are really proud of Sophie for gaining a star award at Nursery and it really nice that her good friend Ava got one with her, FANTASTIC work girls, keep up the good manners!
Sophie is loving Hecklegirth nursery and its lovely to hear all about her morning when she get home, thanks so much to the staff for making her so welcome.”

“Well done Ava and Sophie for gaining the Star Awards, it’s lovely to hear your child is being polite and showing lovely manners towards others. Keep up the good work girls.
Ava is loving her time at Hecklegirth Nursery and is settling in well with the teachers and other children.”

Well done Sophie and Ava for making your families so proud of you. I wonder who will be Star Award winners next week?

Carmen Enjoys Gardening

Carmen seems to have enjoyed digging up the vegetables last week. Her Mum commented on her photo:

“Carmen sayed she loved getting her hands dirty”

She certainly does look very busy in the garden.

Parents Past and Present

Today we have had comments from parents past and present. It’s lovely that Jaylin’s Mum has got back in touch with us and we hope that Jaylin is settling in well to Primary 1:

“Just looking back threw the blog, good work Jaylin she loved her time at nursery.”

As one of our new parents, Liam’s Mum has also been visiting our blog:

“Liam has loved his first 2 weeks at Hecklegirth Nursery. Looking forward to seeing him develop over the next year”

We hope that Liam continues to enjoy Nursery. Thank you for taking the time to add a comment and be part of our blog.

Sophie’s Having Fun

Thank you to Sophie’s family for taking time to comment on one of our photos:

“sophie has had great fun here she loves playing with water and sand, she is really enjoying nursery.”

We are glad that Sophie is enjoying Nursery. She certainly had fun with this activity.

Confident Individuals

We hope that everyone has enjoyed their first week in Nursery. We have certainly had a great week getting to know all the new children and are delighted with the way in which they have settled. Two more parents have posted comments:

“Pleased to see the children appear to be settling well!!!!!!”

“Just to say thanks for a fantastic first week at nursery! My child has really enjoyed it and seems to be settling in well!”

Thank you to all our parents for working with us to ensure a smooth and happy start for the children. One of our aims is for the children to become ‘confident individuals’ and many are certainly showing quiet confidence already. We look forward to seeing you all again next week.

Carmen’s First Impressions

Carmen’s family has enjoyed seeing the first photos of her on the blog and has left photo comments:

“Deryn and Carmen look like there having fun x”
“Carmens first few days at nursery have been great. When I picked her up today I said how was your day at nursery today she replied it was very interesting mummy aw!!!”

Thank you for taking the time to post comments. We do appreciate it when our families participate in our blog as we want it to be something for us all to share. We love Carmen’s impression of her first few days in Nursery and hope that she continues to enjoy her experience.

First Day in Nursery and Primary 1

Sorry that we didn’t manage to get this message posted last night before school and Nursery started today but we feel sure that you will appreciate the kind comment from Ava’s Mum.

“Ava is very excited about starting Hecklegirth Nursery tomorrow! We will see you all in the morning. Good luck to Ollie and all the other boys and girls starting in Primary 1.”

We also hope that you all enjoyed your first day and look forward to seeing everyone in Nursery tomorrow.

Good Luck From Ollie

We have had two lovely comments from Ollie’s family today:

“The potatoes are in full flow now so if any of the boys and girls are passing please stop in to say hello. X”

If you were one of the children who helped to plant potatoes at Ollie’s allotment last term, his family would be happy for you to go and have a look at them so maybe you could take a walk with your family?

They also left a message for everyone starting school or Nursery tomorrow:

“It’s like Christmas Eve in our house. Everyone, especially ollie is excited about starting primary 1. We would all like to wish all the boys and girls at the nursery a fantastic first day. We agree that you will love it at hecklegirth nursery. Good luck to mrs Carruthers and her team and thank you so so much for all the experiences you gave ollie last year. Love Ollie,Wendy and Stuart. X”

We are looking forward to seeing all the children in Nursery tomorrow. Best wishes also to everyone starting Primary 1. We will be thinking about you all and hope that you have a great first day.

Nursery Uniforms

Nursery uniforms should be delivered to school today and can be collected tomorrow, Friday 16th August. If you ordered uniform last term, it will be available from the school office between 1.00 and 2.30. Please use the main door at the front of the school. If you are unable to collect the uniform tomorrow, you can pick it up when your child starts Nursery. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Start of Term

As our summer holidays draw to a close, we hope that the children are beginning to get excited about the start of a new year in Hecklegirth Nursery, whether they are returning or it’s the beginning of their time with us. After a successful pilot scheme last year, we will continue to have two Nursery classes and children have been allocated a place in either the Rainbow Room or the Sunshine Room.
We would like to remind you that the children will attend for one hour only on the first two days, Monday 19th and Tuesday 20th of August. You will find details of your child’s time and room on the letter you received, allocating your child a place. If anyone is unsure of which group and room their child is in, staff will be in school on Friday 16th August and we will be happy to take your call to confirm this.
