NEW INITIATIVE ALERT!!
Julie, Leoni and Tammie would like to introduce a new initiative that will be commencing today (Thursday 10th March). This will be called ‘the lending library’ which has been set up to help enhance the children’s literacy and communication skills both at home and within the ECC.
The children will receive a bag that includes a book and a feedback form every Thursday and we ask that this is returned to the ECC by the following Monday.
what is ‘the lending library’ ?
- weekly home link which will be ongoing until the Easter holidays
- promotes your child’s language and communication
- quality bonding time and interactions between child and adult
- a new book chosen by your child every Thursday
- your child will get a book and a child friendly feedback form to fill in before bringing back to the ECC on the Monday
- at the end of the block, parents will be asked to fill in a feedback form regarding the lending library (this can be anonymous if preferred)
