Playing the ladybird dice game in the sunny garden looks like a perfect way to spend your day! Well done Ava!

Have a great weekend everyone!
Today is our final tasks around the stories of What The Ladybird Heard and What The Ladybird Heard NEXT. We hope you have enjoyed them. These games are about instantly recognising numbers rather than counting – this is called subitising.
Subitising is taught in Primary 1 and I’m sure the boys and girls who are going to school in August will enjoy trying this.
Friday What-the-ladybird-heard
You can also try other dice games over the weekend to practice this. If you have a printer at home you can try and use these, but if not don’t worry you can make your own!

Enjoy, and keep the wonderful pictures coming! You can tweet us @RMPSnursery or email admin@royalmile.edin.sch.uk and can reply to this post with just a ‘hello’ to let us know that you have seen it!
Have a lovely weekend,
Mrs Peoples and the Early Years Team 🙂


Hello, I hope that you are all keeping well. It has been great to see so many people emailing in their pictures. We love seeing what you have been doing and admiring your work!
Just a little reminder that MONDAY 4th MAY is an In Service Day. The Royal Mile Staff will be spending this time virtually working together planning, reviewing and getting ready for this term and next session – whatever that may look like!!!
Then on FRIDAY 8th MAY it is the bank holiday to commemorate V.E. (Victory in Europe) Day. I am sure lots of you have seen the amazing Captain – now Colonel Tom – on the news and read about his fundraising for our NHS heroes. He will be celebrating V.E Day and V.J Day on August 15th as he served in Burma. There will be some activities in the grid next week about this international day.

Please remember next week is a short week. We will only be responding to emails Tuesday to Thursday and the Learning Grids will be shorter to reflect this.
Take care, be kind and stay safe, Mrs Jessop
Today is a great time to listen to another Julia Donaldson story – What The Ladybird Heard NEXT!

You can listen to the story here and then continue some of the egg activities we sent over the Easter holidays with today’s challenges which focus on 2D shapes, sizes and patterns – Thursday What-the-ladybird-heard. Enjoy!
So lovely to see some of the rainbow pictures that the nursery children have made, found, displayed and sent to say thank you to those who help them and to cheer up those people who are feeling sad and lonely at this time – you are so kind, they certainly cheered us up!
Can you find or display a rainbow near your home?
