Granddaughter starting nursery

Hi all, my gorgeous granddaughter will be 4 in November and is starting proper nursery school in a couple of weeks. She lives 200 miles away, so we see her and her lovely almost 1 year old brother usually once a month. Although she has been going to pre-school for a year, I feel proper nursery with uniform and all, is such a big milestone for her, I would like to give her something as a momentum of this special stage. But, I am stumped for ideas.! Thought of an upmarket "scrap book" for first writing and pictures etc. Some personalised pencils- probably to keep at home rather than take to school.
I would be so grateful if any one out there has any ideas,
Thank you!
