Take a look at our Sway below to see how our current topic People Who Help Us, has been developed through consultation with the children. This will continue to be added to as their learning progresses so please keep checking back and don’t forget to leave us a comment!

We had a lovely visit from Catriona the crossing patrol lady today. We have been exploring people who help us and the jobs people do, so it was nice to speak to a real person who told us all about their job and the uniform she wears. Remember to give the Lollipop men and women  a smile and a wave when you see them!

If you or any family members have an interesting job that you could share with the children and answer their questions, please let us know, we would love you to come in for a short visit and talk to the children about what you do.

You may have noticed at the entrance and at our Parents board there are some QR codes on the wall. If you have a QR App that reads QR codes on your mobile device, you can simply scan our QR codes and they will take you directly to our online planning Sways (these are always available here on the blog too).

These codes will be all around the nursery next week during the Stay and Play sessions, so please use your phones to scan the codes to gain access to the links and see what we have been learning and how we plan here at Bathgate West Nursery. Please speak to a member of staff if you are unsure how to use the codes but would like to use them.

The children at nursery have recently been talking a lot about Firemen and this has led on to many discussions about people in our community who help us. We are looking for any parents, grandparents or family members that work in any public service that might be able and willing to come in for a short talk with the children about the job that they do and how it helps other people. Please let us know so that we can help develop and extend this new topic with the children with some valuable real life experience.

In the meantime please take a look back at the past few weeks of learning here at Bathgate West using our Sway…
