Dyslexia Awareness Week 2016

Mauchline PS & ECC are participating in Dyslexia Awareness Week once again this year. From Monday 14th – Friday 18th November the whole school are talking about Dyslexia, learning about Dyslexia and understanding what it is like to have Dyslexia. We are taking part in ‘No Pens Wednesday’ which means that there are no written activities at all and the children are only completing active lessons.

The homework this week was to choose between four challenges. One of the challenges involved creating the word ‘Dyslexia’ and taking a photograph with the completed result.

Dyslexia Friendly Schools Award

Well done to Miss Kirkcaldy and Team DFS who went along with Mrs Cross and Mrs McLean to collect their Bronze Award. Team DFS has been the driving force behind the school managing to secure their Bronze Award and for highlighting Dyslexia across the school and among the parent forum.

The Award Ceremony took place at Dumfries House and provided a chance for every school to showcase their own personal journey. Lewis and Aidan came along to receive the award on behalf of the school. Well done Team DFS, what a fabulous achievement!
