On Tuesday 7th November we are holding a Bookbug session within our Community Room with Alana.

The Bookbug session with your child will be from 9.15am-10am.

Once this is finished the children will return to the playrooms, thereafter, from 10-11am, you are free to stay in our Community room and have a cuppa and a blether with other parent/carers from the ECC if you have time to do so.

If you and your child would like to join us on this morning then please fill out the form below. Due to the quality that we aim to provide and space, this session will be capped at 15 spaces so please don’t wait too long to request a space.

Toilet training and dummy workshop

Dear Parents / Carers

We would like to take this opportunity to invite all parent/carers of children who still use a dummy and/or are not fully toilet trained to a parent workshop/appointment on  Tuesday 5^th September here at Catrine ECC at 9am.

This session will be led by our Community Practitioner, Lauren, who will offer support, guidance and advice on both topics.

It will give you a chance to hear other parent/carer challenges, as well as give you the opportunity to ask questions and feel part of a supported network as we work alongside families to support your child.

We are aware that some parents may not be able to attend due to work commitments, however if this is the case home visits can be arranged from the Health Visiting team. Follow the link below to confirm your attendance at the workshop.

We thank you in your support with this.
