To support our UNCRC Article 27 – I have the right to have a proper home, food and clothing and our ECO journey, this month the children have taken part in an up-cycling activity where they have redesigned an item of clothing from their home.
This experience gives the children a better awareness and understanding of issue’s within our environment and ways in which they can help the environment and live a more sustainable lifestyle.
Fabulous designs from all!

We took part in North Ayrshireās Beat the Street back in May. We were lucky enough to win some amazing vouchers after coming 1st on the total points leaderboard with 51,640 points and 3rd on the average points leaderboard āļøĀ
Over the last week we have been consulting with the children on how to spend our vouchers for Decathlon & Scotia Books. Using the iPads to look at the websites and creating a mind map, lots of the children were able to have their say on what they thought we should buy. We are excited to be ordering new bike helmets, footballs and goals from Decathlon ā½ļøš“š»āāļø The children also chose their favourite āOrchard Toysā games from Scotia Books and these have been ordered as well ā¤ļøĀ
A big thank you once again to everyone that took part and joined in with āBeat the Streetā to allow us to win these fabulous vouchers! You can also see our winning certificates and trophy displayed in the cabinet within the corridor š
Team Largs EYC xĀ
Donald and friends from Fairlie Gardens donated lots of produce to LEYC for our Harvest Day. Some of the children helped organise all the produce so this could be out on display for families to take away. In return families kindly donated items to be given to our local food bank!
Teamwork makes the dream work š

UNCRC Article 27 – I have the right to proper food.
ECO Focus – Waste Management, Taste don’t waste!
The children have been involved in making their own biscuits, scones and pizzas alongside some of the catering staff. Julie transformed her van into our very own LEYC ice cream van, which was a highlight for the children and staff!!
The children were so excited to have a cinema day on a windy day. The staff handed out some treats to the children before they went and found a seat to watch some movies. The children loved this experience very much.
Following on from some of the childrenās interest this summer we have been visiting places in our local environment such as the boating pond, park, train station, shops and community gardens. We have took SIMOA along on our walks to remind us how to keep safe.
