Balbardie P6 Nursery Carers Visit Bathgate West
This session the Primary 6 children from Balbardie Primary School are Nursery Carers and visit Bathgate West Nursery School as often as is possible during the year. They really love the experience of being good role models for the children in the nursery. Here are some pictures of the P6 Nursery Carers in action.
Autumn leaves are falling down…
The children have enjoyed learning about autumn, and used their senses to explore this colourful season. Groups have gone on autumn walks, dressed in wellies and warm coats, and have brought back a variety of leaves found in the park. We have created beautiful pictures with leaves and have also used them to make print paintings.

Zoolab at Bathgate West!
Creatures of the night made an appearance in our nursery…a tarantula, snake, rat, hermit crab and frog came to see us, and don’t forget about the cockroaches that skittered about on our gym mats! Don’t worry – we washed our hands after touching the animals and learned a new word: nocturnal!
Grandparents’ Day
We once again opened our doors to grandparents and special visitors last week, and the children were bursting with excitement! Our guests of honor were invited to enjoy a cup of tea/coffee and scrumptious delights, kindly donated by our nursery parents/carers. We recorded clips of our children expressing why they love their grandparents, and treated our guests to a viewing of the recordings. It most certainly brought a tear to the eye!
The children sang songs and involved the grandparents in outdoor play – a lovely and busy time was had by all!
