★ Every week we choose a nursery rule and pick one child in each group who has followed this rule well and is deserving of our Star of the Week. Well done to this weeks winners for wonderful walking feet! ★
and a big well done to those who won last week for super sitting!
Our Halloween party will be on Fri 27th Oct. Your child will attend their normal am or pm session and can come dressed up if they wish. Please no scary masks and we ask you label all accessories!
This week we learned 9 new yoga poses! Have a go at home with your child it’s so much fun! 🙂
Yoga is beneficial for children in a number of ways:
It helps improve concentration.
It helps with Balance and coordination.
It enhances flexibility as we practise using our muscles in different ways.
It’s helps calm our minds.
and most importantly, it’s a fun way to exercise!
This week on our communication board you will see our Nursery Rhyme of the week is Humpty Dumpty and we have the Makaton displayed to go alongside which are King, horse and men. The Nursery Rhyme and Makaton aid your child’s communication and language skills so please try these out at home with your child. Please look out for the yellow disk being attached to the communication board in the next few days which will be a recording of Humpty Dumpty by an ECC volunteer from either the AM or PM session. It will be a different child each week.
Hello and thank you to the 40 responses we have had regarding the communication survey for the ECC. This feedback is important in order for progression.

Please click on the above link for our Nursery Rhyme of the week. You will find Makaton to go along with this Rhyme on our communication board within the ECC cloakroom. We are raising knowledge of phonological awareness and would appreciate if you could do this with your child at home emphasising the rhyming words within the rhyme and ensuring the correct word order.
The afternoon session enjoyed doing some yoga yesterday with Miss Bechelli. Check us out!
The morning session enjoyed some gymnastics yesterday in the gym hall. Thanks Gemma!
