Good afternoon everyone,

We are delighted to announce we will be holding a Danceathon on Wednesday 26th October for all the children in the ECC.

Your child will have a sponsor sheet home with them today or tomorrow. Please return this with any funds raised before Friday 14th October 2022. We are hoping to use the funds raised in our Danceathon for our Christmas plans this year that we can enjoy and share with all our families.

On the day of the danceathon we ask that children come wearing leggings/trousers/shorts and a t-shirt and comfortable shoes. We plan on doing a lot of dancing!!!

I will put out a reminder of this closer to the date.

We really appreciate all our families cooperation in making our ECC great for the children.

If you have any questions please ask.

Hello everyone,

We are asking that each child bring in their own water bottle to the ECC that can be kept with us. We will ensure that their names are on these.

The children do have access to drinking water throughout their day in the ECC, but we believe this will make is even more accessible for them both indoors and outdoors. It will also encourage children to stay hydrated throughout their busy days within the ECC.

These bottles will be for water ONLY.

If you are having any issues in supplying a bottle, please let a member of staff know.

Good afternoon,

Good morning everyone,

We would like to make a family wall display within the ECC playroom.  Could I ask all our families if they could upload a picture under the ‘Parents Achievements’ tab on Learning Journals, of their family please?  We will then print this out in ECC to make our display.

This is an amazing opportunity for children to bring a piece of themselves into the ECC. Develops communication and language with peers and staff.

We look forward to seeing all your pictures.

Thank you,

Maria

Good morning everyone,

We hope you have all had a lovely summer, we are delighted to be welcoming back the children to the ECC tomorrow, whether this be our returners or some of our new starts.  A few reminder details:

Doors open at 8:45am for drop off – the children will be dropped off in the ECC playground where a member of staff will take them into the ECC. For our new families, we have found in previous years this makes that initial separation a lot easier so if you are taking pictures I would advise to do so before a member of staff take them into the ECC.  Also for our new starts the pick up time for Thursday and Friday will be 11am – this allows for a smooth transition and your child getting used to a new environment for the 2 days and we can discuss longer stay from Monday 22nd August.

ECC doors open at 2:45pm – Please be sharp.

Information regarding your child’s group and keyworker will go home with your child tomorrow so please check their bag.

If your child has any allergies or medical information – please ensure to speak with a member of staff. 

If you have any queries then please phone 01563 525098.

We will see you all tomorrow,

Maria

A reminder that your child can bring one cuddly toy with them to the ECC tomorrow for our last day of term Teddy Bear Picnic.
