The Joy of Reading Together
We are pleased to offer fantastic books from our Netherlee Nursery Lending Library. These will be available for you to browse and choose a title or two to take home and enjoy with your child. They will be set out in the foyer of the nursery from 2.45 p.m. each day to give you time to browse when collecting your child for 3.OO p.m. We hope you find the tips for encouraging reading useful. Click here Parent Zone Reading.
Scottish Book Trust This link also has some useful tips on the importance of reading together for pleasure.
Mid Term Break
The school and nursery will close for the mid-term break and re-open on Thursday 20th February. We look forward to welcoming all of our Netherlee children back again on Thursday.
World Book Day: Thursday 6th March
As always, we encourage parents and families to participate in all aspects of nursery life. If you would like to share your skills as an illustrator, author or storyteller, please let the staff know at drop off or collection or by email to school mail.
Ramadan
With lots of our families looking forward to the beginning of Ramadan on Saturday 1 March, our P7 Diversity Leaders have already made a start on planning learning experiences for the children in school and nursery. We are also fortunate that one of our parents has also volunteered to come into school to lead some crafting activities in Primary 1!
Mrs Linn would welcome your input on how best to celebrate this special festival. If you have suggestions of what we can do in school, please email at SchoolMail@netherlee.e-renfrew.sch.uk or, you are welcome to pop into the school office at morning drop off or pick up time to discuss your ideas with Mrs Linn. Many thanks for your continued support.

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.
