Welcome back to all of the boys and girls who came back to our Class after the summer holidays and a big warm welcome to all of our new friends who have just started at nursery! We would also like to welcome all of our lovely parents and families, we hope you’ve all had a fantastic summer!
Well… Haven’t we been busy! Since our first day, we have been doing lots of baking, playing games, singing, painting, dancing, exercising.. Ah, we have been having so much fun!
One day we decided to go to the park to HIDE SOME BOOKS! Hide some books you might ask? We proudly took part in “Look for a book, Scotland” initiative – it all started on Facebook, where you can join the group. The whole idea is to get the children interested in reading! The boys and girls all over the UK are hiding their favourite books for other children to find, read and re-hide them! We went on a stroll to Barshaw Park and hid four story books chosen by us. When we were coming back to nursery, one of the books was already gone!
A few days after, we checked the group online and we found out that a little girl called Ellis found our book while on a walk with her mum! You can see how happy and excited she is on a picture below, kindly given to us by her mum, Emma. Ellis is now going to re-hide the book in Largs – we wonder how far it can travel!
We invite you to join the “Look for a book, Scotland” group on Facebook and take part in this great initiative!
P: “I want to hide mine at the swings!”
J: “Look, the book is gone!”
C: “It’s for the boys and girls to find and read.”
K: “You need to be careful with the books.”
