Hi all,
Hope that you are doing ok isolating – not long to go.
The activity I have for you today, if you have access to a garden are you able to make a little house using sticks and leaves? If not in the garden could you find materials around the house?


Send us your creations!!

Hi Blues, Yellows and Purples. πππ
Since we having to spend some time at home this week I thought we could use our imaginations and have some fun creating with junk modelling.
Have a look in your cardboard / paper recycling Β bin and see what you can find to make a fabulous creation. You could maybe make a rocket, a car, a castle or even a car ramp like Calum did this morning. He used cardboard boxes, toilet roll tubes and tape to stick it all together.

I canβt wait to see your amazing creations.

Hello everyone,
Unfortunately this year we are unable to invite our families starting with us in August for Session 2021-22, into the setting for an induction due to Covid restrictions and our cohort groups.
This year we will be doing a virtual one.Β This will include all information you need to know before starting, what we do in the ECC, and meeting our staff team.
This induction will continue in 3 presentations over the next 2 weeks.Β Some of the information may change as we return on 19th August due to Covid restrictions so please keep checking our Glow blog for information.

Next week we will be looking more at what the children will be learning in the ECC.
One of our practitioners Louise has read ‘The Tiger who came to Tea’ story for everyone to enjoy.
I will be hoping to contact our new starts coming to us in August 2021 by telephone the week beginning 7th June 2021.
If you have any queries then please contact me on

Thank you and we are very much looking forward to welcoming all our children joining us next session.
Wednesday 12th May – Week 2
Please go to the Hurlford Primary School Glow blogs for week 2 of transition information.
Remember to watch with your child and explain what is happening in each picture.
Good morning everyone,
PLEASE CHECK YOUR CHILD’S BAG TODAY FOR THEIR PROGRESS REPORTS.

Telephone parental appointments take place next week;
If you have not received your appointment time please get in touch.
I hope all our pre-schoolers moving up were able to watch the first part of the transitional video and enjoyed it? Some may remember the Everywhere Bear from when we had it in the ECC? In their bags today will be a blank picture of the bear for your child to colour in or make a sticky picture with? What ever they may like?
The next part of the transitional journey will be made available from next week.
If you have any questions or need any information then please speak with a member of staff.
Maria
We are looking at the transitional journey for our preschoolers moving up to Primary 1 after the summer. Information can be found on the Hurlford Primary School Glow blog.
Follow this link.
In the ECC today the staff will be having a chat with the children on the importance of parts of their body being covered.
As with Scottish Guidance it is advised that children learn to use the appropriate names for these parts of their body as the staff will be today.
Just a little note as I’m sure some of the children will come home and tell you about this chat. This will be for Blue, Purple & Yellow group only (bubble 1).
