Lewis Room Learning Here is some of the learning taking place in February in the Lewis Room with our 2-3 year olds. How busy are we learning and making sense of the world around us…please leave us comments below 👇

Looking forward to seeing everyone at our Easter Forest Event…we’ll have Easter Crafts🎨, Bunny Face Sandwich Making🥪, Easter Story Telling 📖, Toasters Marshmallows🍡, an Easter Treasure Hunt and a surprise visit from the Easter Bunny himself!!!🐣🐰🐇

We are proud to announce that West Johnstone has been announced as a finalist in the ‘Making a Difference" category of the Scottish Education Awards. This is a fantastic achievement for our centre and we would like to thank everyone for their continued support. #ScotEdAwards

Investigating and comparing sizes. Who is taller than a metre? Chn are guided by the responsive engagement of the adult. They then explore the height of their buildings at the construction. Using the language bigger/smaller/taller than a m. A fascinating observation @WJELCC

A letter from Steven Quinn blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/re/public/west…

A wonderful example of how two areas can enhance the learning. The children use the blocks to create their own story settings and scenes for the small world characters they choose.

@RenCouncil @KSBScotland Our smallest hero’s helping to keep our local environment clean and tidy, well done boys and girls

Well done to kids at West Johnstone Early Learning and Childcare Centre for cleaning up the Rannoch Woods and Thomas Shanks Park as part of the #MillionMileMission. They've done an amazing job. #TeamUpToCleanUp #SummerCleanUp @KSBScotland

‼️Important reminder‼️ We have a child who has a nut allergy (this includes coconut) who cannot be in contact with any nut products. Please can you double check lunches being brought in, that they contain NO nut products. Thank you

Lots of problem solving, creativity, physical developmental and self expression. #TeamELC #Blockplay

Mum Connie: “Rhona and Vicky who lead the forest play are clearly experienced and make parents along with all the children feel comfortable and are extremely approachable.” #TeamELC #ForestKindergarten

Mum Ashley: “The staff who facilitate the forest are caring, nurturing and really enthusiastic. They are extremely organised and have every little detail down to a T. “ #TeamELC #ForestKindergarten

West Johnstone kids are challenging themselves by learning as they play in the woods. Mum Ashley said her son Rueben is so excited to go to forest kindergarten every day. Ashley said: “He runs in to nursery every day as he is so excited!”  #TeamELC #ForestKindergarten

👶👧👦 Wee ones across Renfrewshire are settling back into nursery with the help and support of our staff teams. Moira Hope at @westelcc in Johnstone said: "It's about rebuilding relationships and supporting children to form friendships with their peers." #TeamELC #EarlyYears
