This week the children have continued to explore People Who Help Us. We had Michael the lollipop man visiting the ECC to discuss with the children his role and how he keeps people safe when travelling to school. The children were keen to ask Michael a variety of questions to deepen their knowledge around the role. The children also worked as a team to create their own lollipop person, this is now displayed on our ECC learning wall.

Pre-school children attended Dean Park on Wednesday with the primary one children as part of transition. We participated in a variety of outdoor learning experiences- nature walk, creating our own bird pizzas, story time led by one of the Dean Park rangers and a visit to the farm to see all the animals. It was a fun day had by all.

All children attended the Burns assembly  to recite their poem ‘My Hawf Sookit Sweetie’, huge well done to everyone.

Michael a firefighter and one of our ECC parents, visited the ECC on Thursday to share his role with all the children in the ECC. The children were able to ask questions and have discussions to deepen their knowledge around the role of a fire fighter and how they help us.
