Remembrance Day

Lots of our boys and girls have been noticing the poppies people have been wearing on their jackets. We did a bit of research using the computers, newspapers and interviewing adults to find out why. We learned that people wear poppies to remember brave men and women who have died fighting in wars. Some of our boys and girls explored printing with junk material to create our own lovely poppy pictures.

Lunch Bunch Orders

Several parents have asked us for a way of knowing what the lunch choices are for that day so you can order a lunch with your child. On Monday we will be revealing our new lunch ordering system for the Lunch Bunch.

In the morning the interactive whiteboard in the top room will be set up with an ordering screen, showing the choices for that day. Please take your child in and help them move their name onto their choice for the day before you sign them in.

Crisp Autumnal Days

We have been making the most of the dry, crisp weather in our outdoor learning area. With the leaves changing colour and falling into our playground we found some creative ways to play and learn with them. Some of us decided to make pumpkin pies using leaves as our ingredients, some created magical autumn castles and some even used the bamboo tubes to pour water on top of the dry leaves to investigate the effect.

No matter what the aim of our exploration was, we all certainly had fun with this very seasonal resource! DSCF0824[1] DSCF0821[1] DSCF0807[1] DSCF0798[1]

Welly Waddle

On Thursday 8th October 2015, the nursery class participated in a sponsored Welly Waddle to raise funds for the Scottish Cot Death Trust. We all waddled our way around Newlands Park wearing a fantastic selection of wellington boots. Luckily the weather was on our side and we didn’t need the raincoats to match our wellies. The event finished with a lovely picnic in the park. Thank you to all the parents who turned out to cheer us on.

 

Keep checking the blog for the final total of sponsorship we achieved.
