Haleemah’s mummy helped us to understand what our eyes do and how we can keep them healthy. She told us about her job as an optician too.
If you would like to come in to enrich experiences and support our learning in any way please get in touch.
“We need to be gentle with our eyes.”

Welcome to our blog for session 2018-19!
This blog will be regularly updated, with content chosen by adults and children, to share our learning experiences as well as useful ideas and information to help you support your child’s development.
This Friday Sports Day will finally be here and the children of the nursery are so excited!
The Sports Day will be held in the MUGA – this is the running track at the top of the hill.
If this is your child’s normal Nursery day please drop your child as normal. If the Sports Day does not fall on your normal Nursery day please bring your child to the nursery entrance 15 mins prior to the start time.
The sports day times are as follows;
AM session is 11am-11.45am
PM session is 2pm-2.45pm
We kindly ask that your children have sun cream applied prior to attending Nursery and wear sunhats.
For those attending the day to support their child please head straight to the MUGA for the times stated.
Parents are permitted to take pictures of their own children, however we do ask that these images are not placed onto social media as they may contain images of other children.
If you wish to take your child home after the event you may sign your child out from the MUGA where the staff will have gathered them together. We kindly ask you not to remove your child without informing a member of staff.
We do hope that you enjoy the sports day as the children have thoroughly enjoyed practicing for this event and cant wait to race for their families and friends.
Thank you,
The Nursery Team.
The nursery children (and teachers) have been preparing hard for our nursery sports day. We have been learning how to balance beanbags, run in and out of cones and of course we have been running as fast as we can for the flat race.
We can’t wait to show all of our families how well we are doing so don`t forget to put the 1st of June in your diaries!
“I love to run and balance the bean bag on my head!” Maryam.
“I love running so much.” Justin.
“I like watching my friends run!” Ollie.
I like being outside. “Fraser.
“I like running”. Ahmed.
As the warmer weather is slowly beginning to arrive, we decided to hold a planting day to prepare our garden for the sunshine that will hopefully come!
We had lots of helpers to fill our pots and welly-boots with compost and put the plants in! We talked about how we would look after our plants and help them to grow with plenty water and sunshine being the popular answer!
We would like to thank everyone who took the time to join us on the day and we look forward to enjoying the beautiful flowers in the garden!
Please check our information screen in the nursery entrance for more pictures of the children enjoying their day!
” I liked planting the welly boots!” Maisie.
” I liked planting the flower seeds in the pot!” Aleeyah.
“I loved the mud !” Emily.
“I had fun planting all of the flowers!” Hunter.
” I had fun at the planting day playing with the soil.” Taha.
Well it is the end of another year for our Nursery pupils and for some of them, a new adventure is just beginning. I am sure that the children are well prepared for the next big chapter in their lives. On behalf of the nursery staff I would like to thank you all for your continued support and to wish you all a very restful summer break! Please look at our most recent escapades when the rest of the school were out at the Sports Day.
Our Outdoor Learning days are proving a great success with the children, who are busy den building, tyre wall climbing, cooking in the mud kitchen and generally having fun! We hope you will be able to join us in the garden on the last of our outdoor days for this term; wellies recommended!

Our nursery trip to The Royal Concert Hall is taking place on the afternoon of the 28th March 2017 . Children who normally attend for a morning session should attend as normal in the morning but pick up time will change to 11.30 am on that day to allow for early lunches for the trip.
Facilities will be made available for you to lunch with your child in the school dining hall; if you intend to do this, please pick up your child from the nursery door at 11.30am and take them to the main school entrance where you will find the gym hall. Tables will be made available for you there.
Toilets
Please toilet your child before you meet back with the staff at nursery( P1 toilets will be made available on this day) . The bus is due to leave at 12. 30 sharp so we would appreciate your efforts to return to nursery to register your child for the trip at 12.15pm sharp.
We are sure we will all enjoy the day – thank you to everyone who offered to help on the day. As always it is very much appreciated.

Our Christmas concert went really well with our Nursery children learning words and performing very confidently. Thank you to all the mums, dads, grans and grampas who helped the children to learn their songs for the concert; it made such a difference and I am sure you all managed to learn them too!! Ho Ho Ho!
A big thank you must also go to our special visitor on our Christmas Party day
