Permission notes have been handed out early in the term
To prevent the spread of infectious diseases ie temperature, diahorrea, vomiting, at PECC, the three most effective ways are thorough hand washing, exclusion of the sick child or staff and im-munisation. Exclusion of infectious children and staff significantly reduces the risk of the spread of diseases to other healthy PECC children and staff. Children or staff must be excluded from the service for at least 24 hours after their last reaction and/or when their temperature returns to normal with-out paracetamol.
As we are a nut free centre could parents/carers please be mindful of creams and lo-tions with almond oil in them and not to bring them into the centre.
PECC 60th Birthday Cele-On Saturday 13th September
2014, PECC celebrated it’s 60th
Birthday! Fun was had by all.
The children enjoyed various ac-
tivities from face painting to
jumping castles, CSIRO science
craft and experiments and look-
ing through telescopes with Cen-
tral West Astronomy club. The
Police, SES and Fire Brigade were
also great attractions for the chil-
dren.
The children sang songs for the
crowd, then everyone joined in
singing Happy Birthday as four
generations of the Norman family
- headed by Mrs Joyce (cont)
Norman and accompanied by
great granddaughter Stephanie
McNaughton - cut the celebra-
tion cake. Joyce’s daughter Wen-
dy Yeo, grand-daughter Kristy Yeo
and grandson Ben McNaughton
were also there for the celebra-
tion.
The cake stall, BBQ and raffle re-
ceived a wonderful response rais-
ing more than $2000.
The money raised from the day
will allow PECC to continue to de-
velop our playground area with
landscaping and construction
around our newly installed soft
fall area.
Thankyou to everyone who
helped out and to all those that
attended on the day for their
generous support !

In September the Gumnuts
were fortunate enough to
have prac student, Kym
Goodall from Forbes in the
playroom 3 days a week for a few weeks. In relation to Kym’s observations on the chil-
dren, and an interest in sandcastles, the children have been looking at houses and build-
ings. There have been some wonderful attempts at the easel to draw and paint hous-
es. The children have taken a look at photos and then created a very simple drawing
based on shapes to assist them in this activity. We also looked at some famous structures
that are based on shapes like the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Eiffel Tower, Pyramids of
Egypt and the Leaning Tower of Pisa!
