We can’t believe it today is the last day of term.

From everyone here at Simpson Nursery class we would like to say a big thankyou to all of the support we’ve had over the last few months throughout these challenging times and thank our families for staying at home and staying safe. We have missed all of your faces at nursery!

We are so happy that our new primary ones got to meet their new teacher and got to say a final goodbye to nursery this week. We wish them all the best of luck in Primary one 😀

In August we are looking forward to welcoming back our families and meeting new children and families that start with us.

We have created a little sway to introduce our nursery staff and a little sneak peak into nursery for our new children starting with us. Our existing children may also enjoy seeing a little video of their keyworker. This can be found on our twitter page, the link is attached below.

We hope you all have a lovely summer and can’t wait to welcome you back soon 😀⭐️

Good Afternoon everyone,

If your child is leaving nursery to start primary one this year you should of received a group call this week regarding a little request needing your help.

Below we have attached the letter sent to parents. If you haven’t sent over your child’s photograph don’t worry there is still time to do so.  Please send your child’s photo to

Hannah.sneddon@westlothian.org.uk

By tomorrow, Friday 19th June.

Thankyou all for the photographs we received so far we look forward to seeing more and celebrating your child’s time spent at nursery the best we can  😀

Please share this with other parents you may know of their child starting primary one this year.

Hi boys and girls we are looking for your help in the garden please. Have a look at the video where all will be revealed. Thank you!!

Today’s challenge is to create your very own ‘Me Map’ this will support the children transitioning into primary one and the children transitioning into nursery again.

The nursery staff have created their own example to give you a few ideas below.

Your Me Map could include a picture of your child, their likes and dislikes, favourite colour/food or things they enjoy doing! 

This can also include your child’s drawings. 

This can be done on paper and then photographed or done online and can be shared through our twitter page @NurserySimpson, your child’s learning journal or to the emails shared below.

Preschool children starting primary one sent to – 

hannah.sneddon@westlothian.org.uk 

Children starting back nursery or new to Simpson Nursery sent to – 

alison.tomczynski@westlothian.org.uk

The Me Maps will then be shared with the primary one teachers and will support the teachers and the nursery staff to get to know the children for when they start back nursery and primary one. 

Please keep your original copies of your child’s Me Map if possible for displays in the future!

Looking forward to seeing your Me Maps 😀

Good morning everyone, today I would like to share with you a story about Topsy and Tim’s first day at school.

Here is the link below:

What was your favourite part of the story? My favourite part of the story was when Topsy and Tim met their nursery friends in the school.

If you are starting school after summer, what are you most looking forward to?

I hope you all enjoy the story and I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Good Morning everyone,

Miss Meldrum would like to share an exciting story with you all today.  We hope you enjoy 🐻😀
