Church Visit

Our visits to various places in our community continued this week with a visit to a local church. It was very kind of Rev. McGougan to invite us in to his place of work and he was able to explain to the children what he did in his job apart from visit us in Nursery at special times. They were also able to explore the building, upstairs and down, and learn about what happens there.
We hope that enjoy the photos of the morning children on their visit. Thank you to Rev. McGougan for making us feel so welcome and to all the parents who came with us on our visit. Photos of the visit by the afternoon boys and girls will be posted soon.

Well Done Everyone

Carmen’s Mum enjoyed her library visit:

“The trip to the library was lovely. I fair enjoyed my time with the children they are a lovely group. I liked listening to the children answering Tina’s questions the children were very knowledge. They were extremely well behaved. Carmen says she really likes going on the visits to meet all these different people.”

Hopefully the adults who come with us on the rest of our visits will be equally impressed with the children. Well done boys and girls.

World Book Day

To celebrate World Book Day, the afternoon children paid a visit to Annan library today. They enjoyed Tina’s stories as much as the morning children had and were also keen to share their ideas when we discussed some of the stories. It was super to see that Tina had some dual language books and we enjoyed hearing the Polish words for the different animals when we read “Dear Zoo”. Thank you to the Polish parents who helped us to translate and thank you to all those parents who took the time to come to the library with us. Without your help we would not be able to take the children visits outside school. If any parent would like an application form to allow their child join the library, we have some in Nursery so please just ask.

Library Visit Is A Success

Thank you to Liam and Sophie’s Mums for their comments about our visit to the library.

Sophie L.’s Mum: “I had a fantastic time coming to the Library, its certainly true that they were all very well behaved, such a credit to the School, well done!”

Liam’s Mum: “Liam had a great time at the Library. Thats all he talked about all day”.

It’s good to hear that children and parents enjoy our visits into the community. The children’s behaviour was very good and it’s nice to hear that Nursery is a credit to the school. Well done boys and girls!

Library Visit

The morning children paid a visit to our local library today as part of learning about our community and to celebrate World Book Day which is on Thursday. Everyone seemed to enjoy the super stories read by Tina and there was plenty opportunity for the children to discuss their own ideas after each one.
Lots of children seemed to be familiar with the library and hopefully more may join after their visit today. Thank you to all the parents who came along with us. We really appreciate your help. Thank you also to the children for making us very proud of you – your behaviour was excellent on the walk there and inside the library.

Move Up Day

We hope that everyone is looking forward to ‘Move Up Day’ at Hecklegirth tomorrow (27th June). As well as all the children moving to their new class for a visit, our new children are invited to come and play in Nursery. Please check your letter for details of times. We look forward to seeing lots of our new children tomorrow and hope that those visiting Primary 1 have a great time.

Hecklegirth Gardeners

We have a message from Ollie’s Dad about the potatoes we planted at their allotment:

“Boys and girls. Just to let you know the potatoes you all planted have started to shoot so please pop by for a visit. Not quite ready for picking yet.”

Well done everyone! You are turning into expert gardeners.

Tired But Happy!

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.

End of Year Fun

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.
