We had a very successful World Book Day sharing our favourite nursery rhymes. We even had some Primary 6 visitors who wrote their own rhymes and read us some rhyming stories.

 

Feelings

The children enjoyed lots of different activities that helped us talk about our feelings. The children listen to others and were taking turns express personal thoughts and feelings.

Golden Rules.

As the children play and learn, they are developing the understanding of what’s fair and unfair and the importance of caring for, sharing and cooperating with others.

In Nursery we have been learning about rules. The children made a mind map of all the rules then we had a vote to pick our favourite five rules Golden Rules.
