Hello everyone,

Special Books and Care Plans
A gentle reminder to parents and carers to please return any special books and updated care plans so we can continue supporting your children effectively- thank you.
Out and About
As part of our learning, we place great value on getting out into the community to give children real-life experiences — such as practising safe road crossing, visiting local shops and using money, and exploring nearby green spaces while observing wildlife habitats. We are excited to continue our community “Wellie Walks,” which help bring this learning to life, and we warmly welcome any parents or carers who would like to join us to share these experiences and support the children. The school office will email you when your child has a planned outing coming up; these visits are covered by the local area consent form completed when your child joined nursery.
Parent Focus Group
Thank you so much to the parents who have already suggested a suitable time and method for gathering parental views on our improvement process. If you would be willing to work with the nursery team on planning improvements for the nursery, please complete the short form using the link to set up a suitable day and time. We would appreciate your input to our continuing improvements – Continuous Improvement Focus Group Form
The Lion King – Show Programme Adverts for Sale
Do you have a business? We need you! We are looking to raise funds for our Primary 7 school show by selling advertising space within our programme. If you are interested, please read the attached flyer and follow the link.
Voluntary Contributions to Nursery Fund
Voluntary contributions to our nursery fund play a valuable role in enriching the experiences we can offer the children. While core activities are always provided, these contributions help us go further—supporting special resources, workshops, outings, and creative projects that spark curiosity and make learning even more exciting. Every contribution, no matter the size, directly benefits the children by providing opportunities that enhance their development and enjoyment at nursery. We appreciate your involvement and engagement with all aspects of nursery life and look forward to working with you again this year. Contributions can be made via ParentPay. Thank you so much to those families who have already donated.
Achievements
We love celebrating the children’s achievements both in nursery and at home, and we’d be delighted if you could share special moments from outside of nursery too. Whether it’s learning a new skill, showing kindness, or simply making you proud, these experiences help us to build a fuller picture of your child’s development. Please feel free to send in photos, notes, or stories so we can share their successes with the nursery community and celebrate them together. Click on the Achievements link below to share achievements with us.
Closed and Nursery Closed Reminder
The school and nursery will be closed on Friday 13th February, Monday 16th February and Tuesday 17th February. We hope you have a restful, fun break and look forward to hearing all about it when we return from Wednesday 18th February.
Lunar New Year
We would like to wish any families celebrating Lunar New Year a fabulous time.
As always, we are always here to help in any way we can, whether that be about your own child or a more general matter in relation to the school or nursery. We are also always looking for suggestions and new ideas so please don’t hesitate to get in touch at any time.
Have a wonderful weekend.
