Culzean Visits

As our centre was recently successful in obtaining Carrick Futures funding, we were fortunate enough to be able to arrange a series of visits for all of our children to Culzean Estate with Adventure Centre for Education (ACE).

Our children, along with some parents and carers, have enjoyed exploring the outdoor environment. ACE have planned lots of fun games and activities for us such a treasure hunts, bug hunts and nature walks.

You can see from the photos how much fun we are having!

Busy bees


The staff and children from the Ladybird Room have planted some beautiful flowers in their new planters.
While outdoors, a group of children from the the Sunshine Room noticed that the flowers were attracting lots of bees. They watched them very closely and made a video of the bees collecting nectar to show all of the other children in the playroom.
Layla – “the bees suck all the nectar out of the flowers and then make it into honey”
Jay – “there’s lots of bees all over the flowers”
Dexter – “buzzy buzzy bees”

Beach clean

Beach Clean

On Wednesday 3rd June all of our children, from all 3 playrooms, visited Girvan Beach to pick up litter and help to keep our local community clean and tidy. Mums, dads, carers, family and friends came along to help and everyone worked hard to make this a huge success.

Thank you to our boys and girls and all our helpers!
