The nursery children have been busy celebrating Chinese New Year this week as well as Pancake Day.
As you can see the children carefully spread their own pancakes for snack without any help!

100 Days of School
Miss McDermott enjoyed spending the 100th day of school with P1/2 today.
We worked hard to complete 100 activities at PE including star jumps, press ups, touching our toes and even running 10 laps round the hall!
                                
                
Back in the classroom we collected 100 objects.
                
Last of all we drew some funny pictures of what we thought we would look like in 100 years time (but Miss McDermott forgot to photograph them – sorry!)
Show & Tell – Wednesday 27th January
Both morning and afternoon groups will be having a show and tell at small group time on Wednesday. As well as being fun, this activity will help the children to practise their talking and listening skills.
Children are welcome to bring a small toy, book or game to share with their group and key worker.
NO toy guns or weapons, electronics or items of high value please.
What an extremely busy afternoon!
The afternoon group worked and played hard today.
After stay and play, we had music and dancing including disco lights!
We wrote labels for our winter wall display.
In small group we talked about materials that would keep us warm in winter.
Then we tried tasting pickled onions just like in the story – I went to the Zoopermarket.
After all that we sang Happy Birthday to Mrs Brogan who celebrated a very special birthday today. 🙂

The New Year!
Everyone has settled back at nursery after the holidays and we would like to welcome our new children and families. The boys and girls have enjoyed being out in the snowy garden even though it has been very cold! Â Remember to wrap up warm everyone!
Thank You!
Thank you for all of the lovely cards,gifts and good wishes that we received at Christmas.
From all of the nursery team!
Christmas activities in the nursery
As you know the last week in nursery has been extremely busy. Here are just a few photographs of the children enjoying the festive activities!
Nursery Nativity
Well done to all of the boys and girls for their fantastic nativity performances today. Lots of mums, dads and other family and friends came along to watch at school and enjoyed a cup of tea and mince pie too. If you have taken any photographs, perhaps you could email them to Miss McDermott at the nursery for everyone to see.

Remember it is out Christmas Fair tomorrow and both parties are on Thursday! 
Our busy week in the nursery
The boys and girls have been very busy throughout this week making Christmas cards and decorations as well as practising for their nativity. Both groups enjoyed their visit to school to watch the older children too! And on top of all of that, the morning children made soup for snack which was very popular given the cold, wet weather.
