Transition to Primary 1

Bear Hunt City-Wide project

In Edinburgh, all Early Years settings and primary schools are working together on one bog project based on Michael Rosen’s We’re Going on a Bear Hunt.  All children will therefore be familiar with the same story regardless of which nursery they attend. There will then be more fun things to do based on the story when they move to nursery or school.

Weekly activities will be posted on the following site over the next six weeks:

 We will also copy the activities below.  Additional activities can be found under the BEAR HUNT tab.

Hub schools for key workers 

Parents have been contacted by the Authority directly and information has been shared regarding the arrangements for children of key workers for the rest of this week.  If you have had notification to attend a Hub school tomorrow/Friday please note that the Head Teachers at the hub schools will be asking the questions in the flow chart below when you arrive.  Please read these questions carefully as the Heads of the hub schools do not wish to upset families and their children if they turn up in error.  Please note that Hub Schools have been organised centrally and that the school does not currently have information regarding offers to families. 

Please, please make sure you use this flow chart to decide if you are eligible for childcare/schooling
