Children in Scotland usually start primary school when they are between 4½ and 5½ years old. This can be an exciting time for children and their families. It can often be overwhelming too. There are lots of things you can do to help your child with moving on to primary school. On this page, you will find lots of ideas and activities you can use. Starting to think about what your child will need to do when they start primary school will help you too. Make sure you spend time playing with your child to help them develop the skills they need. This video tells you all about the resources on this page and how to use them. It also has some other tips for teaching your child new skills.

We kindly ask that all children arrive with sun cream applied before the start of their session on hot, sunny days.

Please provide a clearly labelled bottle of sun cream for staff to use for top-ups throughout the day.

We have a limited supply of spare sun hats, so we ask that children bring their own sun hat, ensuring it is clearly labelled with their name.

Thank you for your cooperation.

The children just love to explore in nursery and at times require a change of clothes.

Please check your child's spare clothes bag regularly and top up when required. Can you please ensure that all clothes are named as many children have similar/same clothing items.

Thank you for your help 😊

We are delighted to share that we have successfully achieved the My Nature Play programme, and sessions will be starting after the summer holidays.

My Nature Play will support our children to spend more time outdoors, exploring, playing and learning in nature. This approach helps children to build confidence, resilience, curiosity and a love for the natural world through hands‑on, meaningful experiences.

Our journey is supported by Queen Margaret University (Edinburgh), led by Dr Alex Barrable, whose research will help us understand the positive impact of nature play on children, families and staff.

As part of this exciting programme, parents and carers are invited to complete a short survey before the project begins. This helps researchers understand experiences of nature play and ensures parent voices are part of the journey. All information is confidential, and surveys should only be completed once.

More information about My Nature Play and the research project can be found here:

https://sites.google.com/view/mynatureplay/home

My Nature Play survey can be found here:

https://app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/qmu/pre-mnp-family-extended

We are really looking forward to beginning this journey and sharing how our Nature Play experiences grow once sessions begin after the summer holidays.

The Think Equal programme is a focus in our 3-5-year-old playrooms. This social and emotional learning programme is primarily delivered through weekly storybooks. Links to these books, and the key messages they focus on, will be shared here. This will allow children to share and discuss these stories and their messages with their families and carers.
