Enterprise Update
Thank you to all parent’s, family and friends who supported their child and the Family Centre by coming along and supporting our Enterprise Event today.
Not all children’s art work has been sold as yet, however I am delighted to announce our total so far is an amazing £300!!
Thank you once again and we will let you know our final amount when all pieces of art are sold!
Holiday Reminder
Parents are kindly reminded the Family Centre will be closed on Monday 5th May 2014 as this day is a public holiday. Children should return at the usual times on Tuesday 6th May.
In addition, the Family Centre will be closed for the May Weekend on Friday 23rd and Monday 26th May 2014. Tuesday 27th May is an In-Service Training Day – therefore children should return to the family centre on Wednesday 28th May.
Many Thanks.
Enterprise Day
As you will know, the children will be hosting an Enterprise Day on Friday 2nd May.
We ask that all parents/carers come along to support this event. The children have put a great deal of time and effort into their artwork and they are continuing to learn about art and a variety of artists.
Please pop along to the family centre at a time that suits you. Staff and children will be available throughout the day to escort you along to our ‘Gallery’ – you can have a look at the children’s art work and perhaps purchase your own child’s piece of art!
Stay for a cup of tea, coffee or juice and have a chat!
We look forward to seeing you there.

600 Hours Consultation
East Renfrewshire Council currently provides 570 hours per year of preschool education to all 3 & 4 year olds whose parents wish it. From autumn 2014, the Scottish Government is proposing that all councils should offer 600 hours of early learning and childcare to all 3 & 4 year olds. It is the intention of East Renfrewshire Council for session 2014-2015 to extend nursery sessions by ten minutes for all children. It is hoped that by 2015-2016 it will be possible to offer parents a more flexible service.
We are seeking your views so that a model of provision can be devised to best meet the needs of our parents and families within Isobel Mair Family Centre.
You are invited to respond by giving your views, suggestions or concerns.
To participate in this consultation we ask that you complete and return the consultation form. Paper copies of this form are available from the Depute Head of Centre Office, extra copies are available on the parent information table in the foyer. Or click on the link below, print at home and return.
Thank you for taking the time to participate in this consultation.
Upcoming Enterprise Event
The Children have been working with staff over the past few weeks to discuss and plan an ‘Enterprise Event’.
As planning is responsive to ideas stemming from children’s interests the children decided to create spring pictures.
All rooms have been involved in our enterprising event and we will be displaying our art exhibition in the hall.
We do hope you will support this event by coming along on Friday 2nd May as the children are selling their spring pictures.
After the event children will be involved in the decision making of how the funds will be spent.
Teas and coffees will be available at the exhibition.
More information on return following the Easter Break!
