This week, as part of their transition to Primary 1, the pre-school pupils had lunch at the canteen. This gave them the opportunity to learn the routines, meet the cooks and eat from the lunch tray. They did really well, having lots of clean plates, and enjoyed seeing their friends and family members in the canteen.
The weather is been fantastic this week so we have made da most of it!
We recently sorted through our dressing up clothes and put lots of new stuff out. Da bairns have loved wearing it and playing lots of games.
Da nursery bairns are so lucky to have family members living nearby. A couple of weeks ago we went to visit Mia’s granny’s polytunnel and she even let us plant some sunflower seeds. Today we went for a walk down to Nina’s granny Linda’s garden for a visit. She has some beautiful flowers and even a toilet that flowers grow in! She also had hens which we fed and we played with bubbles too.
We saw Miss Stewart’s cousins polytunnel too and she stole a lemon from his lemon tree which we cut open and tasted when we got back to nursery. We had a picnic snack outside on the snack table too once we got back.
Our nursery garden upgrade is slowly beginning to take shape. The bairns worked very hard last week to help remove the old planter so this week we could begin to move things around. Our new water wall is proving very popular too. Thank you to the parents who came in to help lift things yesterday, we still have big plans which we will need lots of help with in the near future too!
Theo’s pet lamb Peggy came to visit us on Thursday! The first thing we noticed was that she had a nappy on! Theo’s mum said this was so that she did not pee or poop at nursery. We got to feed her and hold her on! She ran around the garden with us and Theo said his lamb was very happy to be here with all his friends. When they went to go home Theo’s mum’s car would not start so Laurence had to come and use jump leads to try and get the car to start. We all hope Peggy can come and visit us again!
What a busy couple of weeks we have had out in the sunshine! We have done ‘Da Voar Redd Up’, been to the playpark and been to the Secondary for a play. In the nursery garden we have been very busy taking out the planter as part of our garden revamp, and playing with everything else in the garden. Long may this weather last!
