CHEEP CHEEP 🐣🐤🐥

We have had some very special visitors….

On the Monday we received 7 eggs from Incredible Eggs  to look after and by Wednesday 6 had hatched 😁 with the last egg hatching on the Thursday.  All the children had the opportunity to stroke,  hold or quietly observe the chicks.

It has been such an amazing experience for the children and for us. It was just lovely to watch how gentle and caring the children were around the chicks. 🥰.

Hope you all have a wonderful summer and we look forward to seeing you return in August🏝️☀️ For our new primary 1 children please come back and show us you in your uniform.📚🍎🎓

Ps. Don’t forget if it is sunny please put on your sun cream.☀️

It’s time to enjoy our summer holidays  so…

” NURSERY IS OUT FOR SUMMER”

Love Mrs Mclean and Miss Miller 🏝️☀️💛

Marvellous May🌸☀️💛

Welcome to our 2nd last  blog, I know how time time flies.🕰️

What a month we have had, we all have been extremely busy in the  block area and outdoors. We had lots of fun at sports day. Have a look to see what we have been up to. 👀

BLOCK AREA

We have been very busy in the block area, working on our engineering and design skills, collaborating and turn taking whilst creating various models. We have used Lego , small bricks , large blocks and 3D shapes. We have been using our imagination within our play.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OUTDOORS

We have been making the most of the good weather this month with lots of outdoor play.  The children have been engaged whilst problem solving with pipes and water, making soup in the mud kitchen, planting and moving piles of dirt with construction vehicles. Lots of social interactions and laughter has been had.🥰

SPORTS DAY

Luckily we had dry weather for sports day this year and the children got to show off the skills they have been practicing during our gym sessions.  They were all so amazing showing us how well they can listen and follow instructions .🥰

A big thank you to our P7 helpers and our families who were able to come along and cheer us on. ❤️

Only a few weeks to go until the end of this term when we will be saying goodbye to our friends who are moving on to P1, however we will save the tears until then!  😥

See you next month for our last blog  😢before our summer holidays ☀️🏝️

Love  Mrs Mclean and Miss Miller💛☀️🌸

♥️Fabulous February❤

Welcome to February!

We celebrated Chinese new year through various experiences in the playroom.  We enjoyed mark making  in Chinese writing, creating red and gold collages and even making a dragon! We moved and danced with our dragon round the sensory pathway, adding musical percussion.

At snack, we got to try some soy sauce on our rice noodles,  rice and prawn crackers (and in some cases apple ). The noodles were really sticky and difficult pick up, we had to give them a good shake to fall off the tongs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We read a lovely story about Shen and her magic paintbrush (The Magic Paintbrush by Julia Donaldson).  We all pretended to paint the scary beast with red scales with our own paint brushes before acting out the story – galloping on our horses was the best part!

2D Shapes

The children are continuing to learn the names of 2d shapes and discussing their properties through various experiences throughout the playroom.  We’re beginning to notice shapes in our environment too.

“Mrs McLean, the door is a rectangle and that cushion is a square!” H

Hello welcome to our November blog.

Here are some pictures from Halloween, what a fun day we had!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FEELINGS

During Nurture time, we have been learning about our feelings through the Colour Monster story.  We have been discussing our feelings:  happy, sad, loved, excited , calm, scared and angry.

You can discuss these feelings at home with your child.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BUSY LITTLE ELVES

The children have been busy elves making some fabulous Christmasy crafts for our Christmas markets.  I’m afraid we can’t post any pictures as it would spoil the surprise!

Remember to sign up to the markets if you can make it, sign in sheets are on the easel in the front foyer.

Lots of love,

Mrs Mclean and Miss Miller
