ECC – Transition to Primary 1
“Quality transitions that are well-prepared and child-centred, managed by trained staff collaborating with one another, and guided by an appropriate curriculum, enhance the likelihood that positive impacts of early learning and childcare will last through primary school and beyond.”
Realising The Ambition: Being Me – Education Scotland 2020
Within Fenwick Early Childhood Centre we understand the importance of transition periods in young children’s lives and we are keen to support your child in the best way possible. We aim to work alongside our Primary colleagues to ensure that your child has the opportunity to build positive relationships with Primary 1 staff and key adults within the school, therefore making this process as smooth as possible.
It is also of the upmost importance to us to work collaboratively with parents.
Please could you complete the questionnaire below to allow us to gather your views on your child’s transition into Primary 1.

ECC smelly table
We created a sensory experience for the children. There were items in the tubs which the children attempted to identify by using their sense of smell. Some were nice some not so much.
All of the children did not like the gravy granules, they did like the shower gel. The children also invited both Mrs Stark and Mrs McKillop to come and see what they could guess. Mrs McKillop was not keen on the milk!

Innovative Idea
The Children made their own game rather than having one from the cupboard. They were really keen to share it with everyone. They added the dots and numbers independently, they then used natural materials as their counters. They counted, worked collaboratively and celebrated each other successes! Well done everyone!
Luke said “it’s fun doing these things and when you win.”
