Graduation 🎓

Good Morning ❤️💜💛💚💙

To all the children that will be moving up into Primary 1 after the summer, all that staff here are super proud of you all!!!

We unfortunately never got the chance to finish this last part of your learning journey within the ECC so we have put together a special video for the children and their families that we hope you will enjoy.

 

We will miss you all as you take this next step but know that you will all do great ❤️

All the staff here at Hurlford ECC 💛💚💙❤️💜

 

Home Learning

Hello everyone…..

As the end of term is drawing close,  please ensure to keep checking on the ECC and PS Glow blogs for information.  We understand this may be an anxious time for many families and that you may have lots of questions. Please know that once we have all relevant information regarding the return in August we will be in touch.

Parent Club is a great resource to keep up to date on information and there is a dedicated FAQ page.

https://www.parentclub.scot/

Going forward until end of month we have made up some activity ideas to keep the children learning at home.

Egg and Spoon race 🥚🥄

Good morning 💙💚💛❤️💜

For today’s sporting challenge it is the Egg & Spoon race.

You will need to set up a finish line and the aim is to get to the finish line as fast as you can without dropping the object on the spoon. Now this can be an egg (perhaps your grown up could hard boil it first 😁) or you could use a potato, a small ball..whatever you can find to put on the spoon.

Hope you all have fun with today’s challenge. Don’t forget to do your warm up that Michelle posted on Mondays blog.

Let me know how you get on.

📚Cosy Story-All Groups❤💛💚💙💜

Good Morning Everyone 🤗

It’s not a very pleasant day out there today after all that lovely sunshine.  ☔☔

Today why not choose your favourite story book , find a comfy place , get cosy and cuddle up with your big people to read a story.   Talk about your favourite characters in the story and what happens throughout.  Did anything silly happen ?  Were any characters a little cheeky?

I miss reading you all stories at nursery and look forward to  being able to again soon.

One of my favourite stories to read is Room on the Broom .

Have a lovely day.

Information for Parents/Carers who have pupils going into Primary 1

I hope you and your family are well. Thank you for your ongoing support and all your efforts in encouraging your child to do their work at home.

We know that you will be keen to have more information regarding the way ahead, we will endeavour to inform you as soon as possible, this is particularly of interest to our Parents/Carers whose children are coming into Primary 1 or our ECC.

I am sure that you are following the First Minister’s daily information sessions and updates on the East Ayrshire website, which will keep you abreast of any developments.

 Be assured, a member of staff will contact all P1 parents individually via the telephone prior to the end of term to discuss plans for August.  We will also create an  online P1 induction film for your information regarding P1.

From 1st June applications will be accepted for the Best Start Grant – School Age Payment, worth £250 to eligible families for children about to start school in Primary 1 to help with the costs of a child starting school. This money can be used for anything that families may need at this key stage in a child’s life.

You do not need to take up a place in school after the summer to get this payment but any parent who has deferred entry until August 2021 should also make the application NOW if their child’s birthday falls between 1 March 2015 and 29 February 2016.

When to apply for School Age Payment depends on when your child was born, not when they start school so any parent who defers their child’s entry to school to next year may miss out if they don’t apply now. Applications will open on 1 June 2020 until 28 February 2021 for children who were born between 1 March 2015 and 29 February 2016.

To apply, the parent/guardian needs to call a Freephone number 0800 182 2222 and leave their details. They will then receive a call back to make the application
