We\u2019ve been spotting new buds on trees, listening for birds, and looking closely at the changes in our outdoor areas. These seasonal changes are creating many wonderful learning opportunities both indoors and outdoors, as well as during our visits in the local community. The children are showing great curiosity and enthusiasm as they explore, observe, and talk about what they see. We are also looking forward to welcoming families to our <strong>Bookbug Sessions next week<\/strong> for those who have signed up, taking place on <strong>Tuesday or Wednesday morning between 9.00 a.m. and 10.00 a.m.<\/strong> We can\u2019t wait to share songs, stories, and rhymes together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Upcoming Events<br \/>\n<\/strong>Please have a look at the parent calendar, available on our Netherlee Website, to see all the dates and times of the various events coming up. \u00a0This link will take you straight there <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/er\/sandnc\/calendar\">https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/er\/sandnc\/calendar<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>World Book Day<br \/>\n<\/strong>World Book Day was a wonderful success in the nursery, with the children enjoying a range of fun activities celebrating stories and books. Many children came dressed as their favourite characters, and it was lovely to see their excitement as they shared their costumes and talked about the stories they love. Throughout the day we explored books together, listened to stories, and took part in imaginative play inspired by our favourite characters. It was a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the joy of reading and storytelling together!<\/p>\n<p><strong>International School Meal Day &#8211; Menu Change: Thursday 12<sup>th<\/sup> March<br \/>\n<\/strong>Please find attached our planned menu change for next Thursday 26th February.
