We have been talking about what we enjoyed doing over the summer holidays and places we visited.
We would really like if the children could bring in ONE photo of them on their holiday/place they visited. We would be grateful if you could write their name as well place/country on the back of the photo as we will be looking at different countries on a map. We will be using these photos for the children’s scrapbooks.
Thank you
The ECC children are going to be continuing our Intergenerational Project this term with two of our local care homes. Children will be visiting:
Springhill Care Home – AM session
Howard House Care Home – PM session
These visits will begin on Tuesday 10th September for PRE school children only. We are hoping that after the October holidays our ante pre school children will join in with these visits.
Could all parents of PRE school children please complete the permission below for these visits.
Thank you
Please ensure that all items of clothing are labelled before sending them into school.
There have been a few items of lost property already that we are still looking to locate. Some items with names on them.
Please can all parents double check clothing to ensure that you have your own child’s items .
Please hand any items that have been accidentally taken home into the school office.
We are also looking for a special hair band that may have been taken home by mistake. Its made up in the school blue tartan fabric.
Many thanks.
The ECC will be having our first Bookbug session of the term on Tuesday 3rd September with Mrs Hendrie
Morning session 9am – 9.30am
Afternoon session 1pm – 1.30pm
Bookbug is limited to 10 spaces only and is worked on a first come basis. Sign up sheets are located in the cloakroom area of the ECC so please sign your name up quick if you would like to come along. If you have any questions please speak to your child’s key worker or Mrs Hendrie.
The first of our sporting events has come into the school already! This is a Primary Schools Road Relay for Primary 6 and 7:
Saturday 21st September, 2019
in
Grangemouth
As this takes place at a weekend, it would be the responsibility of parents to take / bring home the children to this event, however registration must be done through the school.
If any child feels this is of interest to them, please contact Mrs Lawson / Mr Smith for further information. Please note this may be of particular interest to children used to athletics training as each child would be expected to run one mile. If enough children come forward we can enter teams of three.
Many thanks.
Before the holidays, we noticed that it was taking some time for children to make their way to the lines when the bell rings at 9am especially if they are enjoying playing on the grass or the trim trail.
We have therefore decided to introduce a bell at 8.55am to alert the children that it is time to gather their belongings and make their way to their lines where staff will bring them in promptly at 9am to start their day.
The doors at Base 1 will continue to be opened at 8.50am for Primary 1’s to have a soft start to their day.
