As a class within Coylton Primary School we also enjoy all the opportunities that provides.\u00a0 We enjoy time in the gym, ICT suite and sensory room but also enjoy STEM learning with P1 and visits to our P6 reading buddies.<\/p>\n Please take a look at the video below which introduces our staff team and shows some of the interactions, spaces and experiences your child will enjoy at Coylton EYC.<\/p>\n
