We are on the last term of this session which means that our pre-schoolers will be moving up to Primary 1 after the summer.
Transitions may be slightly different this year but we will let everyone know what these will be once confirmed.
In the ECC we will begin looking to promote more independent skills with the children moving up. This is something that we also encourage Parents/Carers to do at home.

Handy tips:
- Labels with child’s name on all their belongings.
- Shoes that are easy to put on and fasten – same for gym shoes.
- Make sure your child can easily identify their belongings for example; coat, bag, pencil case and lunch bag.
- Practice zipping up coat with your child.
- Practice organising belongings – if taking off coat, jumper etc to put where it is meant to go and not left laying on floor.
- Eating using a knife and fork – if packed lunches easy to open items.
This is a very exciting time for all the children and we want to prepare them as best as we can especially given the circumstances we have all faced this session.
If you need any other information please just ask a member of staff.
