Month: October 2018

Thank you!

We would like to thank Mr Jimmy Kleboe for being our Lollipop Man on Sloan Street since February.

Jimmy has done a marvellous job of ensuring that Catrine PS pupils get to and from school safely over the last few months.

So, thank you, Jimmy, from the pupils, parents and staff of Catrine PS.

Our new Crossing Patroller is Graeme Fullarton – our Junior Road Safety Officers are looking forward to working with him over the course of the coming year.

Sleeping Beauty, Palace Theatre

The whole school will be visiting the Palace Theatre in Kilmarnock on Tuesday 18 December to enjoy the 10.00 a.m. performance of “Sleeping Beauty”. To reduce costs for parents, the school is paying all transport costs and also subsidising tickets by £2.00 per child. Therefore, the cost of the visit will be £8.00 per child. You will be notified via ParentPay and we would appreciate all tickets being paid by 7 December.

If you wish any further information, please do not hesitate to contact the school.
