Hello everyone,

Thanks to all of you who have registered to follow our Blogspot- spread the word please!

We had a very exciting Halloween at Craigton Lodge. Witches and wizards , an amazing array of superheroes , skeletons , pumpkins , cats and other spooky creatures - well done to you all for the lovely costumes...and to the staff who made a great effort this year!

Today of course is Bonfire night and the children have been creating some beautiful firework pictures which you can admire all over the nursery. The older children have also been learning how to be safe with fireworks...so I hope that you're all going to an organised display where you can oooh and ahhh at the sights and sounds safely- I hope the rain stays off for all the bonfires that are planned over the next few day.

The older children have also been learning about road safety. We have some new storybooks with road safety themes- some of these have been sent home. We hope that you find them useful and share them with your children - they are certainly enjoying the stories and discussions at nursery!
