Let the Learning Begin!
Check out the gallery below showing our children enjoying their first learning adventure in our brand new Mud Kitchen! We are so excited to see the positive impact our Mud Kitchen will have on the learning of our boys and girls. As you can see, learning certainly is fun (if a little messy) in our Nursery!

Operation Mud Kitchen Complete!
After a great deal of hard work, we are delighted to announce that our Nursery mud kitchen is now complete!
The children can stop peering out of those windows now and can actually get out and explore…the messier the better!
We would like to offer our sincere thanks to everybody who has helped make this dream project a reality. It was a magnificent team effort and we could not be any happier with the results!
It has been a very productive few days over at the Nursery! The sun has been kind to our parent helpers and nursery staff who have been working tirelessly on our brand new mud kitchen!
Excellent progress is being made but there are lots of jobs still to do! Thankfully, we have a wonderful team, who are toiling away with smiles on their faces!
Our boys and girls can’t help but keep peering out of the windows to see just what’s going on! With the kitchen itself arriving tomorrow, the excitement won’t let up any time soon. Let’s hope the sun doesn’t let up either!

Meet Sid and Shanarri!
Meet Sid and Shanarri!
Sid and Shanarri are puppets who regularly visit our Nursery Class. Each group’s keyworker reads a story to their group, aided by Sid and Shanarri, which helps support our monthly SHANARRI focus.
Have a look at the pictures to see our boys and girls having fun learning alongside their new friends!

Infant Outdoor Learning
At Rochsolloch Primary School, we pride ourselves on using Outdoor Learning Experiences to encourage our pupils to develop a sense of connectedness with nature and to our local environment.
Our Nursery and P1 pupils were visited by ‘Zoo Lab’ as part of our Minibeasts transition topic, where they were able to learn about and handle a variety of creepy crawlies, including giant snails and snakes!
Our P1 classes also visited Brownsburn Local Nature Reserve, where they were taken on a guided nature walk by Jackie, our local Countryside Ranger.
Take a look at our zoo lab gallery!

Mud Kitchen Mood Board
Over the next few days, our ‘Mud Kitchen Mood Board’ will be going up in the Nursery foyer. We are really keen to create a Mud Kitchen for our children to use during outdoor play but parents, grannys, grandads, we need your help! 
Do you remember how much fun it is playing in the dirt!? Do you have a few hours to spare? Can you help us source some of the equipment we need?
Read our latest Newsletter for full details or have a chat with a member of our Nursery team.

Sports Day Fun in the Sun
The sight of the summer sun has been a welcome one over the past few weeks, and we were delighted that the sun shone on us again for the Nursery Class Sports Day this week. Have a look through our photos and you can see just how much our children enjoyed the day, as well as how active they were! It was wonderful to see so many adults come along to cheer on the children, and to join in the fun during the Mums’ Race and Dads’ Race!
The Sports Day allows our P6 pupils and Nursery Class children the chance to work together, strengthening bonds between our school pupils and our pre-school group before they come together as Buddies at the beginning of the new school session.
Mrs McCulloch would like to say an enormous thank you to Mr Griffin and P6 for organising and running the event, to the Nursery staff, to the visitors who came along to watch and of course, most importantly, to the children for giving it their all!
Mrs McCulloch would also like to thank John Wilson photography for taking the official photographs on the day, which will be added to the website in the near future.
What a great day!

A Fine Parade
On Thursday morning the pupils of the school were treated to an Easter Bonnet Parade, courtesey of our Nursery Class.
It was clear how much work our boys and girls, and our families had put in to creating these wonderful Easter bonnets! It is always great to see our Nursery Class and older classes come together and it’s always easy to see how much our Nursery children enjoy showing off the hard work they have been doing to their friends in the school!

Helping Hands
Our regular walking expeditions are really beginning to have a positive impact on the health of our pupils, with many of our boys and girls keen to push themselves to walk further and further each time we are out.
As you can see from these pictures, our Nursery Class are also doing a lot of walking at the moment, and it’s always wonderful to see how well our older boys and girls are able to take on the responsibility of looking after our Nursery children.
