Eid Mubarak

Eid Mubarak to all our Muslim families. We have been learning about Ramadan and Eid festivities and shared a story Aleena brought into nursery. Some of our children told us about how they celebrated Eid last Wednesday with their families.

“I went to the Mosque and I got presents. I got a microphone.” Ayla.

“It wasn’t a good Eid because it was raining. We had to watch for puddles when we were getting our photos taken.” Zara.

“I got my hands painted with Mendhi”. Zainab.

“So did I.” Azan.

Care Inspectorate

All services providing early learning and childcare in Scotland must be registered with the Care Inspectorate and are regularly monitored and awarded grades. Inspections are unannounced. We recently had an inspection and we are delighted to share with you the inspection report. Please take some time to read this.

Glenwood Family Centre were inspected in two aspects, Quality of care and support and Quality of staffing and we were graded excellent for both.

I am sure you will recognise that the commitment and professionalism of the staff team are a real strength of our centre and we strive to continue to maintain excellent standards in ensuring the highest quality care and support for all our learners.

We are having a picnic!

We love to have pretend picnics in the quiet room… so we decided to have a real one! We wrote invitations to invite our friends and we had lots of preparations to do. 

We made bunting to decorate the room.

We planned our menu. Once we decided what we wanted to eat we made shopping lists and will be visiting the shops to purchase what we need.

      We can’t wait to have our picnic!

We’re Going on a Bear Hunt

We love to hear stories and we have been listening to one of our favourites read to us by the author. Michael Rosen is the author of “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” and we can join in with the actions as he reads this story.

We loved this story so much we decided to make props and puppets to retell it. We made a big bear puppet and some long swishy grass.

I wonder what else we will need to make to tell this story?

Chinese New Year

We have enjoyed some Chinese food for snack this week as part of our celebrations for the Chinese New Year.

“I don’t like the noodles but I like the rice.” Naomi.

“It’s good and yummy.” Marnie.

“I don’t like the stir fry. My daddy likes stir fry.” Euan.

“Lovely. I want some more. It’s delicious. I don’t like the corn.” Matthew.
