Moving up to P1

Good morning,

As we are nearing the end of this session it will see many of our pre-schoolers moving up to P1 (Scary I know!!!). We want to do our best in order to get the children best prepared for this transition. There is a fact that is not always known that is, in order for children to be able to sit for any length of time to listen and focus their attention they actually need the physical core muscles to be able to achieve this.

In the ECC we regularly provide opportunities in which the children can build their core muscles. I have listed below some games in which you can play at home that will help with this development.

Core Exercises

Please ask a member of staff for any more information.

Feel free to post on Learning Journals your child’s progress.
