A big thank you to the 49 participants who completed the communication board survey this is very informative and useful for our progression. A few people have commented on improvements for our communication board which included display of a weekly snack menu this is put up on a weekly basis in the cloakroom please find this menu on the board next to the ECC playroom door. Other feedback left was in regards to pictures of the children being displayed this will be taken on board and I look forward to adding some pictures of the children in the near future maybe interlinking to our top tip of the month. Thank you very much for your support. Miss Clark.

Communication Board Update
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.
