On Tuesday 15th November myself and Lesleyanne had the privilege of attending the CYPIC conference in Glasgow SEC where our video clip was presented showcasing Catrine ECC and our fabulously famous children 🙂

Scottish Government asked us to discuss some of the changes we have made so far whilst on our journey to becoming a Communication Friendly Environment with the collection of data and quality improvement methods in mind.

Below you can find the link to the video clip where you might see some familiar faces (Riccarton ECC appear first in the clip with Catrine following on a few minutes later)

Huge thank you to Melanie from The Magpie Mel shop in Catrine for kindly donating dressing up clothes. The children will have so much fun with them and lots to choose from.

Have you been in for a look yet? It’s open on a Monday and Friday from 5 pm – 7 pm at the AM Brown institute Catrine.

The children have had a ball today exploring how fast/slow they can go adding water to our slide …. however this has resulted in some slighter wetter clothes upon our return back inside.

Lots of children have empty bags and clothes needing topped up.

Please continue to send clothes in so that experiences like these can continue.

Schools in East Ayrshire will be affected by Industrial Action by the Educational Institute of Scotland (EIS) and the Association of Heads and Deputes in Scotland (AHDS) on Thursday 24th November 2022. At this stage we anticipate that all Early Childhood Centres will operate as normal.
