Wedding Photos

In the ECC, as part of the royal wedding celebrations we will be looking at weddings throughout the generations. We are looking for some wedding pictures of parents, grand parents or even great grandparents so we can compare at all the different styles and inspire the children to design their own and stimulate conversation.

Please label the pictures with the child’s name and the year of the wedding and who is in the picture.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Our Nursery Rhyme of the week….

5 little ducks Makaton

Our Nursery Rhyme of the week is 5 little ducks went swimming one day and if you click on the link above you will be able to view the Makaton signs to go along with the rhyme. Please point out the rhyming words to your child.

Singing rhymes with your child can impact their education as this aids their ability to hear sounds within words and identify other rhyming words. I will be gathering data on the children’s knowledge before it has been focused on and after and will share it’s impact on the blog in the near future.
