We need your help !!

As part of our World of Work Week we are looking for any parents or family members that would be able to visit our ECC to share with the children information about their job.  This will help support us to develop the children’s knowledge and understanding about the wide range of jobs available to them when they grow up. It helps create the foundations of our future work force.

The World of Work

The kind of information we are looking for is:

  • What are your responsibilities and roles?
  • Do you wear a uniform or any safety equipment?
  • What tools or resources do you use?
  • What products do you produce?
  • Does your job help anyone?
  • What is the environment like where you work?
  • What are the benefits of your work?
  • Why do you enjoy doing the job you do?

Please feel free to bring pictures, equipment, uniforms or props to help show the children more about your job.

The dates to visit would be 29th, 30th of May and 3rd of June. If you are able to help us with this task please speak to Sherrie to arrange a time for you to visit.

If anyone is unable to visit in person please feel free to create a short video sharing information about your job. Please email these to easherrie.devlin@glow.sch.uk

STEM Homelink Activity Week 2

This week our activity is to use digital technology to research information.

You can choose anything to research and find out information or facts about. It could be about an animal, a place in the world, a food, a superhero or anything you wish.

Encourage your child to select the apps, support them to try typing in words, allow them to select the web page, use the mouse and look at the pictures. You could also try using voice recognition, such as Siri, to tell the device what they want to find out.

Then create a picture of what you have researched. Adults or children can write or type any information the children can recall from searching the internet about their chosen subject.

You can use pen and paper or even the drawing pad or app on computers/iPads to try and create your picture/poster.

You can bring your pictures into the ECC or, if you have created them on the computer, then email them to easherrie.devlin@glow.sch.uk

Have fun.
