Our partnership with National Numeracy is coming to an end and I would like to say a huge thank you to all the families and pupils who engaged with the scrapbooks over the year.
I have been so proud to attend meetings with the organisers and other schools in East Ayrshire who have been taking part and to show off the fantastic work lots of you have been doing!
Due to the huge success we intend to continue with the scrapbooks next year and, fingers crossed, we may be able to get families together to share ideas and offer support.
National Numeracy would like your feedback and have asked that parents complete a short survey. You have a chance of being entered into their competition to win £50 worth of books and games.

Although some restrictions are beginning to ease we still really miss not being able to have our parents/carers in school to see all the fabulous learning that is taking place.
Mrs Schendel, Miss Murdoch and Miss Burleigh would love a blether with parents/carers of P5/6 and Primary 6/7 about all things maths and will be in the main playground on Tuesday 24th May at 2.45pm.
Please come along and ask any questions you may have in supporting your child with their maths homework or to ask about the maths work taking place in the classrooms.
We would appreciate that in line with our regulations that social distancing is maintained.
If you are unable to attend but have any maths related questions you would like to ask please e-mail me at:

We look forward to seeing you then.
It’s National Walk to School Week next week, beginning Monday 16th May. Our Junior Road Safety Officers in P4 have come up with a different theme for each day for our PS and ECC children – we look forward to seeing everyone taking part throughout the week.
We hope that you will take part in the Walk to School Week. If you come to the PS or ECC by car, why not Park & Stride?
This is a great time to remind everyone that the area around our ECC and PS is a School Streets area and is traffic controlled between 8.30-9.15am and 2.30-3.15pm to allow our children to arrive and leave safely. Unfortunately, the rules are not always being followed and children continue to be dropped off and picked up by cars outside our school, which is a major health and safety concern for all of our pupils.
Next week’s themes are ….
Mixed-up Monday: wear your jumper back to front
Team up Tuesday- walk to school with a friend or family member
Wild Wednesday – wear your hair in a wild or crazy style
Think about it Thursday – can you think of any ways that we can improve our community?
Freestyle Friday – Wear your own clothes to school.
Thank you, from Primary 4 Junior Road Safety Officers
Every class at Catrine PS entered into the Primary School Art Competition at last Saturday’s Catrine Show. The theme for the artwork was ‘The Platinum Jubilee’.

All the pupils and staff at Catrine Primary School would like to say goodbye and good luck to Mrs McDicken, who has been our Senior Clerical Assistant for 28 years!
We would like to thank her for her many years of dedicated service to the pupils and community of Catrine, and wish her all the best in her new role at Ochiltree PS.

These girls – P7 pupils Layla, Sophie and Alix and Lexie in P6 – took part in the SSBU Badminton Primary Championships at the weekend in Perth. They were excellent representatives for the school and the community and we are very proud of them all.
