Good morning,

Here is a little activity to make you and your family smile 😊

Draw a cloud with your name or someone in your family’s name, then with an adults help, list some lovely things about yourself or that person 😊

Feel free to post pictures of your lovely creations on your child’s learning journals 👍😊

Morning all, here is another challenge if you are looking to keep the children busy.

Remember we would love to see their towers, please share on Learning Journals if you are able.

Thanks

At this time of great change for us all, here is a very helpful story from nurse dotty to support our youngest children understand what is happening in today’s world.

Dave the dog helps the children to understand what the Coronavirus is, and why we need to change the way we are living to keep ourselves and loved ones safe.

Hope you all find this helpful 😀

The children of the Yellow and Orange Groups had a wonderful time at Caprington woods this morning 🙂

We had great fun walking around the woodland area, collecting leaves, sticks, fir cones and acorns to make some fantastic pictures. We also investigated all the different sounds we could hear,  such as the wind blowing through the trees and the different noises our boots made as we walked through the squelchy mud and puddles!

We went on a big walk through the woods investigating all the fallen trees and branches, we then all gathered round to enjoy the story of………….

We really enjoyed the part where, sheep, goat and frog were left ‘Stuck in the muck’ 🙂

Take a look at all the photos from our Adventure!

Thank you to all the parents who came along to today’s session, we are really looking forward to going back next week 🙂

We have had a fantastic day today at Riccarton Early Childhood Centre!

We have been very busy with a range of exciting activities, such as sharing a story with our families and friends, making our own character masks and have had great fun exploring our Hungry Caterpillar curiosity cube!

All the children enjoyed participating in a book hunt around the nursery garden, looking for some new and exciting books!

We then got to take them home 🙂

Have a look at how much fun we had!

The children of the pink group enjoyed their visit to Bridgend garage this morning!

We had the opportunity to look around the workshop and investigate the different sounds of the engines. We then watched with interest as the mechanics fixed the cars and vans 🙂

We all had a fantastic time!

We would like to say a huge thank you to all the staff at Bridgend garage for letting us visit over the past 7 weeks!
