Throughout the magical month of December all the children in the red group have been so excited and even shared lots of fun stories over little elves that have visited their homes.

In nursery there has been a little Christmas magic sprinkled in all areas allowing the children to continue and extend their interests as well as following more structured experiences in preparation for the Christmas markets.
We have made lots of crafts, written letters, sang songs, built grottos and sleighs, met some reindeers, danced and even dressed up! It has been jam packed full of fun!

Below is a snapshot of some fun things we got up to. 🎄🎅🦌

Thank you to each one of our wonderful families who helped make the Christmas markets a raging success! We all believe it was the best to date with the children talking about it for days afterwards.

 

Happy New Year, we hope you all had a restful break. We would like to start by  congratulating Mrs McCluskey on the safe arrival of her beautiful baby boy Logan, we wish her all the very best as she starts to make new memories with her lovely family.

We can now introduce our new keyworker Mrs Ramsay, who will be replacing Mrs McCluskey while she is on maternity leave. Mrs Ramsay is delighted to join the Red Group and has been busy bonding with all the children at Cross Arthurlie.

 

During this month we have had the pleasure of welcoming some new children to our group. We are looking forward to getting to know them and watching them grow during their time at nursery.

 

The children have been busy working on their pre-writing skills by participating in mark making experiences throughout their time in nursery.

Our award winners for January & February, well done!

Thank you for all your continued support and encouragement.

Mrs McCluskey, Mrs Ramsey & Mrs McFarlane
