The coaches shall leave the nursery at 9.15 am prompt and leave for the return journey at 2.15 pm from Blair Drummond.

It is anticipated that all children will have an adult family member to accompany them on the outing.  Once we have the final numbers, then we will be able to offer out additional seats at an extra cost.

The cost of the coaches, four in total will be paid for from the Fundraising Event on the 2nd March in the Station Hotel, Shotts.  Tickets are on sale now.

Payment into the park can me made direct to Nancy or Lorraine in the admin office or can be paid in instalments.

We are sure that this will be a great family day out.  Please note that the nursery will be closed on this day

The parents/carers and children have been cooking up a storm in their local community centre. They have followed healthy recipes to make wraps, vegetable skewers and a delicious apple crumble. Next week they will be making fruit kebabs and pizza. While taking part the children are learning about good hygiene , weighing and measuring, shape, colour while exploring new tastes.

Parent and Child Forest School Sessions

The first session took place on Monday morning and Wednesday afternoon, everyone  had a great time and lots of fun was had. The parents and children took part in some pond dipping and fishing. We  even managed to catch a variety of creatures from frogspawn to tadpoles as well as some water snails. Children had opportunities to build relationships within the group whilst learning about  the rules and boundaries within Forest School. We are all looking forward to next weeks  sessions where we will be exploring the creatures and mini-beasts that live in the woods as we turn ourselves into Nature Detectives.
