A GREAT DAY OUT TO THE NATIONAL MUSEUM OF SCOTLAND

All our pre-schoolers recently received a free Reading Rainbows book bag thanks to the City of Edinburgh Council.  One of the books was ‘Dear Dinosaur’ and this has been the focus of the nursery’s learning as we build up toward our transition ‘Moving Up Day’ on Tuesday 12th June.

This week we all visited the National Museum of Scotland to see their very own T-Rex and had a great day out including a picnic lunch in the Meadows Park and a visit to their playground.  The weather was just so glorious that all treated ourselves to an ice-lolly!  Some of us were so tired after our fun packed day that we fell asleep on the bus!

A ‘BIG’ Thank You to all the family members that came with us on these trips.  We hope you enjoy our photos.

SPLASHING FUN AT DALRY SWIM CENTRE

Leave a reply

The children, parents and staff had great fun in the pool at Dalry Swim Centre on Thursday 10th May and Thursday 17th May.

For some children it was their very first time swimming.  Everyone really enjoyed playing with the toys and floats and learning to kick our legs and move our arms in the water at the same time.  There are several Swim Centres in the city run by Edinburgh Leisure.  The summer holiday is a great time to book swimming lessons and help your child to develop their swimming skills.
