New Staff
The Moffat and Beattock nursery children have all settled into nursery well and we are enjoying working together as a nursery cluster. We welcomed Miss Murray as Beattock's new nursery manager as well as some new staff members, Mrs Ptak, Mrs Green and Mrs Proudfoot.
Out and About
You may have noticed us out and about, investigating our local environment recently. We have been learning all about our community and have enjoyed visiting some of our local shops and parks.
Visit to the Co-op and making soup
We recently visited the Co-op to buy ingredients for Pumpkin soup. The children helped to make the soup for snack, which was enjoyed by almost everyone!
The Nursery pupils and parents enjoyed a recent visit from Simon from DG OWL.
He played lots of games and activities with us to help us learn all about numeracy whilst playing outdoors.

We learned about sorting, counting, estimating, comparing. weight, measure and symmetry but best of all, we learned that we could have lots of fun with maths!
Staff Training
Staff members have been busy over the last year undertaking further studies to enhance their practice including Paediatric First Aid, Food Hygiene training, and Woodwork in the nursery.
Special congratulations go to Mrs Pow and Mrs Mezzullo who most recently received their Froebel in Childhood Practice certificate from Edinburgh University.
