Cooking and baking experiences have been extremely popular. This has enabled the children to explore print, quantities and above all develop skills for life using real tools and implements.\u00a0 We hope you have all enjoyed tasting their finish product.\u00a0 It was lovely to see a mum being invited by their child to join in this experience and share their learning together.<\/p>\n
Our plans are now firmly in place for our transition \u00a0with Dykehead Primary School which we are so proud of with our theme being \u201ctransition for families\u201d.Information from St Patricks Primary and Stane Primary will be given direct from the school.<\/p>\n And so to our Tartan Day, an accumulation of the children’s learning throughout the month.\u00a0 We learnt new songs, read stories in Scots, found out where Scotland was and in particular that they lived in a village called Shotts.<\/p>\n Many of the children are experiencing difficulties when getting themselves ready for outdoor learning, therefore we would like to ask your assistance in helping to practice these skills with your children at home and more importantly when you are dropping them off and picking them up.

Please remember to pay your \u00a31 to Isabel or Lynn on a weekly basis.<\/p>\n The weekly \u00a0Bookbug family sessions continue to be really well attended. This block we are reading the story of \u201cWhatever Next\u201dby Jill Murphy. Remember this session is opened to all family members and childminders. It\u2019s great to see so many dads supporting their children during these opportunities.<\/p>\n Over the previous couple of \u00a0weeks the children have been exploring line and pattern.\u00a0 They have demonstrated that they can follow vertically and horizontally using a tartan plaid as a visual stimulus.
