Return to the ECC

Good morning everyone,

After the first minister’s announcement this week we are delighted to be welcoming back all the children to the ECC from Monday 22nd February.

Our safety restrictions will still be in place, here is a reminder of these;

  • Children and staff will be in two separate bubbles.
  • Group drop off and pick up times will be staggered to ensure the ECC playground is not too busy.
  • Children will be collected from adult in ECC playground – you MUST wait with your child until a staff member takes them from you. Please be patient as staff from different bubbles are not able to take your child.
  • When collected children will be brought out to adult in ECC playground.
  • Face coverings must be worn when dropping off or picking child up.
  • Can we ask that only one adult enter playground to pick child up.
  • All children will wash their hands when entering and exiting ECC.

Due to transitional benefits we have had a change in the group bubbles – this allows the children to mix with others and for the children entering Primary 1 this year it is good for them to get to know some of the other pre-schoolers. Our new drop off and pick up times for the groups are as follows;

Groups Drop off Pick up
Red & Green 8:40 2:40
Yellow & Blue 8:50 2:50
Purple 8:55 2:55

We are very grateful for all our families continued support and understanding during these times.

Stay safe everyone!

Maria

πŸ”΄πŸŸ‘πŸŸ’πŸ”΅πŸŸ£Patterns πŸ”΄πŸŸ‘πŸŸ’πŸ”΅πŸŸ£

Hello everyone πŸ™‚ I hope you all had a nice wee break from home learning.

I am so excited that i will be able to see you all on Monday πŸ˜„.

Today I thought it would be fun to identify different patterns.
Can you identify different patterns around your house?
Look for spots, stripes, tartan, animal print. You might find these on socks and t-shirts, cushions, curtains and bedding.
Have a look at your toys do you have any animals or toys with print i.e., Zebra strips or leopard spots?

I would love to see what patterns you find!

For a extra challenge can you make your own pattern?Β  You could use bricks or cars or even paper.

And for a extra tricky challenge can you follow and copy a pattern?

I have posted some examples for you.

I cant wait to see what patterns you find or make.

Have fun πŸ™‚

Tracey 🟣
