Remote Learning – We’re Going to Go to School Soon – Week 6
It is the final week of our transitions programme. Can you believe how quickly time has gone?
As we are saying ‘goodbye’ in nursery to all the children who will be going to school in August, here are some activities to finish off our Bear Hunt…
Transition Visits to Glenwood
This week we have been excited to welcome our pre-school children back to Glenwood for the first of their transition visits.
It was a bit strange at first but the children soon got over their nerves and were soon joining in with all the different activities. It was hard remembering that we couldn’t be too close together but everyone did very well.
Here are some pictures of the experiences we took part in…
The Beebots went on a Bear Hunt
Building houses for bears
Inventing our own bear maths games
Playing on the computers
Drawing pictures and reading books
Listening to the story of Whiffy Wilson The wolf who didn’t want to go to school
And everyone decorated a triangle to make our own bunting
Next week we will hear all about your adventures when you visited your new schools and also have a small celebration together to say ‘Goodbye’.
Remote learning- We are going to go to school soon- week 5
Our transition visits have now started with children invited to meet their classmates in small groups both in nursery and at school. During these visits the children will be invited to take part in some more Bear Hunt activities.
Remote learning- We’re Going to go to School Soon… week 4
Wow, we have now reached week 4 of our transition to school programme and I know many of you have been taking part in lots of the activities. Very soon you will be invited to come to Glenwood as part of a small group and we will be doing a few of the activities together. We look forward to seeing you!
Don’t forget to keep a record of the activities you select each week- perhaps photos, drawing and comments in a jotter or scrapbook.

Remote Learning- We’re Going to go to School Soon…. week 3
It has been great to see all the learning our pre-schoolers are sharing as they take part in our school transitions programme based on the story, “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” by Michael Rosen.
Keep sharing these by tagging us and your primary school on Twitter.
Here are the suggested activities for week 3…. As always, remember you don’t need to do everything suggested or spend a long time on this. Simply pick the activities which suit your child’s interests and a do a little bit when it suits you throughout the week.

Remote Learning – Moving On to School
We have prepared a Sway to help answer some of the questions you may have about the transition process for children who are due to move on to Primary 1 in August.
It will also give some information about our ‘Moving On’ programme which will start next week.
We hope you find it helpful.
