We have been very lucky with the weather this week and our nursery children have enjoyed playing outside in the garden.  The children were using their large muscles to balance, jump and roll.

Our new outdoor kitchen has been very popular with our children and they have been using their imaginations to create different recipes

. 

The children helped to make healthy pitta pizza’s for snack and were using their social skills to take turns and share the ingredients.

A huge thank you to all of our parents and carers who came along to the event, we hope that you enjoyed having a look around the nursery and meeting with the staff.  Here are a few photographs…

On Wednesday the P7 class took a trip to Sky Skills Studio in Livingston to make a 6 minute TV report called Mind, Body and Sport. The children had to work as a team and developed their skills such as self management, creativity and problem solving.

We were delighted to find out that we had the most prefect points this week.  It was good having the playground to ourselves-Cameron.

We did some magic with crayons and black paint to make special picture frames for our first day at school photos-Max.

I enjoyed making a Halloween card-my hand was covered in green paint.  It looked crazy!-Cory.

I made a zig zag book telling the story of The Rainbow Fish.  I managed to write the numbers on my pictures so that I knew where I had to put them in my book-Elsa.

Look who’s here! We are listening carefully to Gary. He is telling us all about what firefighters do to keep us safe. Tonight we have to ask a grown up at home to check that we have a smoke alarm and that it is working properly. If we don’t have one, then Gary can come round with one for us.

We have lots of questions for Gary.

Mrs McKay is dressing up as a firefighter because Gary said that Mrs Sutherland is too large. She hopes he means tall !!

Please ask us about Gary’s visit because we are learning lots !
