What a super day we all had last Thursday. 

Lindsey came to visit us from the RSPB.

She came to talk to us about some of the birds that we might see in Orkney.

She had a magic bag full of bird puppets and bird  toys.

We guessed what they might be. 

Then we said hello to the birds and they all said hello back to us!

Each bird sang a very special 'hello' bird song.

The one that made us all laugh was the noise of the puffin. We all thought it sounded like a cow!

Then we all helped to make bird feeders.

Lindsay told us all about what birds eat and why sometimes the birds need a little helping hand.

Once we had made our bird feeders the morning nursery session went on a very snowy bird walk!

It was straight after playtime and there were lots and lots of hungry birds looking for a snack or two!

We threw some of the bird food in through the gate at the pond area.

We were very lucky. Lots of birds came to investigate!

What a lot of busy little people we had in nursery last week!

 We thought you might like to see some of the many things that we have been doing.

We have been busy exploring the 'beebots'.

We were learning how to make them move in different directions.

In the hall, it was time for us to move in lots of different directions too!

We were busy practising our balancing.

We were using the benches and the PE equipment to climb on and balance across.

As part of the Scottish Children's Book Awards,we have been listening to the book 'Robot Rumpus' throughout the week.

Once we had listened to the book a couple of times, we started to plan and design our own robots!

We had to think about the special skill our robot would have.

Then we had to think about what we would use to make it.

We are all really busy coming up with lots of super ideas. 

Well Done boys and girls!

Once we had planned our fantastic robots, it was time to start building!

Here we are constructing our robots!

Many of us were very busy gluing, sticking, cutting and painting.

Once we had finished our robots, we voted for our favourite one. 

Then we even took the robots on tour! 

They were so super, we took them to visit Primary One and even all the way up to Primary Seven!

Welcome Back to the Nursery. 

Our first week in 2015! 

It's been great to see all the boys and girls settle so well back in to the nursery routines and what a busy week it has been!

Many of the boys and girls helped to make vegetable soup this week.

We were all really excited as the tatties and the onions were from our nursery garden! 

We were very busy washing, chopping and stirring the vegetables.

We all really enjoyed tasting our soup too. 

We think it tasted so yummy as it came  from our own garden! 

Well Done to all our little gardeners.

We have all been keeping fit and healthy this week too. 

Earlier in the week we were using the equipment in the hall and playing parachute games. 

Here we are busy dancing to the 'Milkshake Bop Box'

We are watched and listened. 

Then the fun began as we followed and copied the dance moves.

It was tiring and lots of us felt very hot after all of our exercise but it was great fun too!

Lots of us are keen to dance to some different songs soon.

We have been listening to some 'Traditional Tales' this week too. 

We built a gingerbread house and listened to the story of the 'Gingerbread Man'.

Then we made and decorated our own Gingerbread men.

When they were baked and cooled we munched them up for our snack.

 Lots of us were like the fox in the story as we gulped up our gingerbread man. 

Some of us munched the head first, while others munched up the toes!

Luckily our gingerbread men didn't escape from our oven! They were all safely in our tummies!

 Show Time! Here we are busy getting ready for our show 'Panto Pandemonium'

We practiced the songs and spent lots of time at the rehearsals.

 Here we are getting dressed up and ready to go!

Don't we all look smart!

Some of our aprons had letters on them and others had Christmas pictures such as stars, Christmas Puddings, Christmas Trees and even Rudolph!

The letters on our aprons spelt out the words 'Merry Christmas'

 Our performances were on Tuesday night and Wednesday afternoon. 

We all did really well.

 We sang our little hearts out and sat still for a very long time! 

 Well Done! We all think you did a really super job!

 We had our first ever Christmas School Dinner in the Nursery last Friday!

Our Friday whole day children enjoyed their Christmas Dinner in the nursery.Yum!

We had good fun pulling our crackers and reading the funny jokes too!

Last Thursday was National Christmas Jumper Day! Lots of us joined in by wearing our Christmas Jumpers to nursery.

 Lots of us enjoyed popping on the Santa hats and starting to feel at little bit like Christmas is on it's way!

What a fantastic afternoon we had on Wednesday! 

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Christmas Decoration afternoon.

We had a super time painting our stained glass windows, making Christmas Wreaths and Paper Chains.

We were all really busy making our nursery look fantastic!

After we made our decorations we hung them up. 

The nursery is certainly looking ready for Christmas now. Well Done Everyone!

    We were busy making stockings, stained glass decorations to hang up, paper lanterns and Christmas bunting too!

What a busy time in nursery as we get ready for Christmas!

Wow! Look at all our nursery superheroes!

Last Friday we helped to raise money for Children in Need.

Lots of us had great fun dressing up in our superhero costumes.

We are sure you will agree that we all look fantastic! What an effort. Well Done everyone!

The nursery superheroes go on tour!

We went on a little tour of the school to show off our super costumes!

We had great fun showing off our costumes and seeing all the other boys and girls wonderful costumes too.

The morning nursery boys and girls popped in to the special Children in Need assembly too. 

We gave the whole school a little wave as we showed them our costumes.

What a busy time we had in nursery last week!

We were very busy learning our 'Dancing Bones' Song! 

Lots of us enjoyed learning the dance  moves too!

Thank you to everyone who joined us at Review Time. 

We had great fun sharing our song and dance with you.

 All of the adults were dressed in black last Friday because they had a plan!

Here are some of the many before and after pictures!

All of the children had great fun with masking tape and stickers! 

Can you guess what they were up to?

They had great fun using the masking tape to make our bones. 

Suddenly, we were all skeletons!!

 Wow! Look at all the amazing outfits! Do you recognise any of these characters?

 We had lots of new people joining us in the nursery session today! 

We had skeletons, vampires, witches, batman and many more scary characters.

 Lots of us were busy making spaghetti soup for the witches! 

Some of us tried to scoop out the pumpkins but it was quite tricky!

 We were very busy making our chocolate apples too! 

We dipped our apples into the chocolate and then into the sprinkles! Yum!

Don't they all look delicious!
