If you visit the Nursery this week you will see we have started our autumn displays & interest table. The bowls on the interest table are mostly empty, we hope the Nursery children will help to collect things which show the signs of autumn.

Today we made caves for our dinosaurs to hide in and talked about what dinosaurs like to do. Mrs Anderson read a dinosaur story with some tricky dinosaur names.

The makeover in the garden has started well with the arrival of our amazing new wigwam. Mrs Duffy and Mrs Graham worked hard to assemble it last week. Well done Ladies!
We will keep you posted on the progress of our garden.

A questionnaire will be sent home with pre-school children this week. Please help your child to complete the questionnaire and return it to Nursery. Thank you for your support.

Last session on the main school website I set up a page with information to help with the transition from Nursery to P1:

• Top tips from Parenting Scotland
• Welcome to Lawfield videos made by P1 (now P2)
• Infant weblinks to support literacy

‘Every Day’s a Learning Day’  produced by Education Scotland for parents and carers of children aged between 3 to 6 years. The aim is to help parents support their child’s development in the crucial areas of health and wellbeing, literacy and numeracy.
