Week Beginning 12/06/23
We have had a very busy week at Mauchline ECC.⭐️
P1 bump up day was on Tuesday where the children got to meet their new classmates and have some time with their teacher. We also got to meet some of the boys and girls starting with us in August! An exciting day for all🥰 Graduation took place on Thursday with our families celebrating our achievement.👩🎓🧑🎓
Outdoors this week we have been continuing to explore positional language, creating our own houses for animals to live in, beside, on top of etc. We have also been enjoying the sunshine in which the sand and water play has been a favourite.
Curricular Areas – Numeracy, Health and Well-being
Indoors we are looking at the four modes of transport; road, air, sea and rail. This week we have focussed on road transport and began creating tally and bar charts to find out how the children travel to the ECC. Some children created their own stories after expressing interest in books. We will continue to develop this in exploring initial sounds and letter formation.
Curricular Areas – Numeracy, Health and Well-being, Literacy
We are so proud of our children, they all did fantastic during graduation and we are so excited for their P1 journey.⭐️
Have a lovely weekend everyone and make sure to stay safe in the sun!

Health week
Busy week within the ECC this week celebrating health week.
Indoors we explored healthy foods and have a veg shop set up for imaginative play, this also led to exploring money and the value of coins.
Children created their own eat well plates in the creative area sharing their knowledge and interpretation of what they think is healthy foods. Also children used mirrors to talk about their feelings and were able to make self portrait.
Outdoors, Jan our HWB champion led the children in a variety of activities daily to support exercise and well-being.
We also had a few visitors through the week PC McPike, active schools and children took part in “potted sports” with help from p6 buddies.
Remember ECC is closed Friday 26th, Monday 29th and Tuesday 30th. We will reopen Wednesday 31st May.
