Post Olympic Post

Good afternoon everyone ,

A huge thank you to all those parents, grandparents, aunties and uncles who came along to our Sportsday yesterday . We were very fortunate with the weather(other than a brief shower) and the sunflowers had great fun participating in the races , cheered on by the buttercups as well as parents . The athletic standard was very high , and although not everyone stuck to their own lane (or indeed any of the rules!) I hope you'll all agree that the Craigton  Olympic Event was a great success .  A particular mention must go to those of you who 'volunteered' to take part in the parents races - I think it was the highlight of the day! Its always brilliant when parents get into the spirit of things and your participation and support is always very much appreciated. We are aware that you all have other commitments, and that it can be very difficult to rearrange these in order to attend events at nursery , so we all thank you for coming along and helping to make it such an enjoyable day .
For those who graduated yesterday , Mrs. Mackay and all the staff at Craigton wish you happy and enjoyable times at 'big' school . It has been a pleasure to be part of your lives so far - we'll miss you all . Please stay in touch and come back to say hello.

Next week we will be welcoming a new member of staff to the buttercups . Lauren Horne will be joining us as a nursery assistant from Monday . She's looking forward to meeting and getting to know you all , so please take the time to introduce yourselves - there are a lot of faces to recognise at Craigton!

The Duthie Park Ranger Service will be running a series of children's nature activities on Tuesdays over the summer. Posters for this are on display in both buildings with further information on the activities and how to book - (booking is essential)

Dont forget to let me know if you have anything you'd like to share with other parents /staff on the blog - Ill be happy to post events or useful information.

A reminder that the nursery will be closed on Monday 9th July for the local holiday
