Tesco Stronger Starts Grant

We are delighted that Catrine Primary School have been awarded £1000 from Tesco Stronger Starts Grant.

Louise and Eileen from Tesco Auchinleck came along today to present the pupils at Catrine PS with their cheque.

The money will be used to create a garden to grow vegetables and for loose parts for the playground.

Thank you to everyone that supported us and dropped the blue counters into our box.

Summer Trip Reminder and Information

Our whole school summer trip to Heads of Ayr Farm Park will be on Wednesday 25th June.

Thank you to everyone that has handed in their child’s permission form and payment.

Again thank you to the Parent Council making a donation towards the cost of the trip.

Parentpay is open for payments, if you are having problems with Parentpay please contact the school.

As we will be away for the full school day, we need to make plans for how many pupils will require a school meal/packed lunch on this day.

Hot Weather and Sunscreen

As the lovely weather continues, we would like to remind everyone of the sun safe message.

Can we ask that you apply sunscreen prior to your child attending school?

Please do not send sunscreen into school.

Your child can wear a sunhat, if they wish, and can bring a bottle of water to have in class.

Thank you.

Have a lovely long weekend.

With the lovely weather hopefully continuing,  can we ask that you apply suntan lotion prior to your child attending school?

Primary 7 PE Activities Evening

Primary 7 PE Activities Evening – Wednesday 14th May 2025 – 4pm – 5:30pm

Please find attached P7 Activity Evening information letter which was originally sent out to you all last month.

The Robert Burns Academy PE staff have arranged for external visitors to come in and work alongside them to organise a wide range of activities for the event which should be a really good introduction to the PE Department for both parents/carers and pupils moving into S1 in August.
