ECC – exploring hammers

The ECC children have enjoyed exploring real hammers to hit golf tee’s into a pumpkin. They carried out their own risk assessments before taking part in the activity. They self selected their “safety goggles”

ECC new display

The children have been working hard creating hand print pumpkins and painting ghosts.

School App

The majority of whole school general information is shared with parents via the School App.  This is the recommended method of communication by East Ayrshire Council and is also the preferred method for many of our parents as the App sends push notifications to your phone to ensure that you don’t miss important communication.

Please find instructions above on how to download the School App if you do not already have it.

ECC Halloween

The ECC will be having a Halloween party on Friday 30th October. Children are encouraged to come in dressed up but please do not bring in props to go along with costumes for example broomstick and sword. Halloween parties will be in the children’s TRIO’s. All children will be indoors on this day but kept on either side of our dividing wall. Parties will take place throughout the usual session times. We look forward to seeing all of your lovely costumes 🙂
