A wee reminder that we still have our harvest collection at the nursery entrance. Some children will help deliver these to local residents of Carron Court in the next few weeks. A big thank you to everyone who has so generously donated items already.
As we reach the end of a very busy term we wanted to wish all the families a very happy and safe October holidays. We will see all children return to nursery on Tuesday October 24th.
Below is the link to share more of our learning here at Bathgate West over the past few weeks, looking at Autumn changes and Harvest. Please take a look…..
Yesterday we had our visit from Mhari and Ziggy from Childsmile who came along to talk to us about the ways in which we can look after our teeth and keep them healthy. We also got to see just how we should be brushing our teeth twice a day, front and back, up and down and round and round. We all helped teach Ziggy to brush his teeth properly too.
Please keep checking back to see how our learning had progressed through our Learning Story.
This is our Pirate Learning Story…look out for our Autumn Learning story coming very soon!

Tempest will be in on Monday 2nd October to take individual nursery photos of your child. If your child does not attend nursery on Mondays and you would like them to have their photograph taken please let a member of staff know and we can arrange a time to bring them in on Monday 2nd Octobers for their photo to be taken.
We are trying to reuse some of our pre-loved uniforms that have been handed in and help raise some funds for our nursery. Have a look through our collection at the nursery entrance and grab a bargin!

£5 per nursery jacket/Fleece
We were cooking up a storm in the mud kitchen this afternoon…. lots of mud pies, cherry pies and a strawberry pie too. We might need to make up our own mud kitchen recipe book at this rate!
Mud kitchens provide great outdoor learning spaces for young children. Learners enjoy getting hands on playing with mud and water, whilst also developing important physical, social and emotional skills and it’s also lots of fun!
As you can see, it can get very messy so please can we remind you not to send your children into nursery with best clothes and also bring along a spare set of clothes each day just in case your child needs a change after some muddy play, especially with the changes in weather when we will continue to play outdoors in all kinds of weathers….so wellies are probably best!
Using the link below you can have a look at our planning and learning for our current topic of Pirates which has been developed from the children’s interests within the nursery.
The learning story will continue to develop as the children’s interests develop so please continue to check the story for regular updates and feel free to comment or share any learning from home that may have links to our Pirate Play here at nursery. We would love to hear about it…
