We have counted the votes for our new buggy. We made a graph with the votes and then looked for the highest bar. There was a clear favourite seen below. It has been ordered and we hope to have it soon. Thank you again for your contributions each week which enables us to renew our resources in this way.
Some parents have been asking about dates so just a little reminder. Our Nativity Performance is on Thursday 14th of December at 9.45 a.m. and 1.45 p.m. and our Christmas parties are the following week on Wednesday 20th of December (the usual nursery times). Don’t forget the Christmas Fair on Friday 1st December as the nursery children are working very hard on items for our stall.
Our first PEEP group took place today (Monday 13th) and we had a great time. Thank you to everyone who came along.
We have three more weeks to enjoy before we stop for the lead up to Christmas (always a busy time!). We plan to run more PEEP sessions in the new year.
You are invited to our teddy and pyjama day for the launch day of our Big Bedtime Read initiative. Join us on the 28th November at 10.15am or 2.15pm. You will get to join your child for a story and a cookie before they get their first ‘Big Bedtime Read’ bag home. Children can come to nursery wearing their pyjamas and bring a teddy that they can show for ‘show and tell’ .
We are all very excited and look forward to you joining us for this special day!
We are going to hold our Big Bedtime Read Launch on the same day as our Stay & Play (Tuesday 28th November). We are changing the times to 10.15 (for a.m. session) and 2.15 (for p.m. session) on this occasion only. This means when you leave you can take your first Big Bedtime Read story sack away with you. Exciting times!
The photographer is back to take photos of your child on Wednesday 22.11.17 so lots of shiny faces on that day! If you want a younger sibling in the photos speak to Mrs Anderson who will explain the timetable for that.
We have made a new special space for our nursery parents. The idea is you can come along once a week with your children and see how easy it is to learn with your child through play.
On November 6th you can join us for our launch and see our gorgeous new space for yourself.
Come along while your child is enjoying nursery (a.m. 10.15 or p.m.12.15), see our new room, have a cuppa and a chat. Mrs Wilson and Mrs Lockhart will be there to answer any questions.
On 31st October you can wear a costume to nursery and there will be lots of fun Halloween activities to do.
(Please avoid masks in the Halloween outfit as some children get unsettled by them. Also clearly name all accessories to the costume e.g. broomsticks so we can find them and return them to your child more easily).
It would be great to get the last children with their own wellies before the October holidays. Please let us know if there are any difficulties with this.
Just a quick thank you to the parents/carers who gave us some feedback after the consultations for our pre school children. We appreciate you taking the time and giving us such positive comments. We will certainly continue to do our best to live up to them.
One parent asked for Show & Tell to be reinstated and this has also come up at our Parent Forum (posh name for our chats after Stay & Play). We have decided to link Show & Tell with our Stay & Play opportunities. So every time we have a Stay & Play we also have a Show & Tell.
Our next two Stay & Play (and Show & Tell) dates are on Thursday the 26th of October and Tuesday the 28th of November. It would be great to see you there.
