What an exciting day we had when the Olympic torch came to Annan. Despite rainy weather, lots of us arrived very early in Nursery to go, with the rest of the school, to cheer on the Olympic torch. It was even more exciting because Rohan\u2019s Mummy was the torchbearer who carried it past us. We made sure that we gave her a huge cheer and waved our flags to support her.<\/p>\n

After the torch, everyone made their way to the Victoria Hall where we had a snack and enjoyed a \u201cSticky Kids\u201d show, along with lots of other nurseries. There was a lot of singing along and actions to keep us amused and some children were even invited on to the stage.<\/p>\n

The excitement did not end there because the next day Rohan\u2019s Mummy brought in the actual Olympic torch for us to see and hold which was fantastic. We hope that everyone remembers these events in years to come as it was certainly a very special occasion. Well done to Rohan\u2019s Mummy and thank you for bringing in your torch \u2013 we all really appreciate it.<\/p>\n
