Agnes Retires
Agnes Dick retired today after nearly 16 years as caretaker within Shotts Family Learning Centre.
Agnes started within Shotts Family Learning Centre on October 1999 and has been an integral member of the team. She will be sadly missed by staff, parents and children.
To mark her retirement children and staff decorated the nursery and had a party to thank her for her kindness, hardwork and dedication over the years.
We wish her well on the next chapter of her learning journey

Forrest School Session
The first of four Forrest Schools sessions took place on Wednesday. A great day was had by all.
The children were accompanied by Nicola, Susan and the Keeper of the Forrest where the children explored pond dipping, retelling the Gruffalo story as well as increasing their knowledge and understanding of the environment
The Forrest School approach believes in children’s right to play; the right to access the outdoors (and in particular a woodland environment); the right to access risk and the vibrant reality of the natural world; and the right to experience a healthy range of emotions, through all the challenges of social interaction, to build a resilience that will enable continued and creative engagement with their peers and their potential.
