The Nursery are learning and celebrating the life of Robert Burns. Children are experiencing the sounds of Scottish poetry, music and songs. The sounds of bagpipes are being played daily and the voices of children learning songs such as, Three Craws, Ally Bally, You cannae shove granny and The Midgies, can be heard from the Nursery. Children are sampling tartan and looking at photographs of kilts. This week children are exploring how to make tartan and creating some tartan with paint and variety of collage materials. Children will have the opportunity to engage with a variety of Scottish fiction and Non Fiction stories.
Next week:
We will be exploring our senses as we look, smell and taste…Oatcakes, cheese, porridge, Haggis, Neeps and Tatties.
We are also very excited to announce that we will be fortunate enough to have a special visitor on Monday 25th January to play us some traditional bagpipe music both in the morning and afternoon nursery sessions.
