Ladywell Nursery School
This week at Ladywell Nursery School the children have had lots of fun visiting the school gym hall and the local park.
At the gym hall the children were developing their gross motor skills when running, playing football, balancing bean bags on their heads whilst walking, using the hula hoops to roll them along the ground and throwing bean bags into them then counting how many bean bags were inside the hoop, walking along the balancing beam and jumping off and also playing basketball. This is a great transition link for the pre-school children who are moving onto P1 at Harrysmuir Primary School soon.
At the park the children were displaying good listening skills when following instructions from staff. They held each other’s hands and walked along safely. We stopped and looked at signs in the environment talking about the different letters and spotted some numbers too. When at the park the children took turns and played together well on the different slides etc., we even spotted some aeroplanes passing by. On our way back to nursery the children spoke about what they liked best at the park and the slide came out the most popular. We are hoping to visit the park again next week.
The children have also been very busy practicing songs for our summer celebration on Monday 9th August.
Next week we will be having some picnics outside in the garden weather permitting.
Have a great weekend!
