Well done to our Ruby Reward winners this week for being excellent pupils in our dinner hall.

Catrine PS is proud to be a School Streets area and, to keep our pupils safe, we have parking restrictions in place around our school streets at both drop-off and pick-up times.

Between 8.45-9.15am and 2.45-3.15pm the streets around our school should be free from all traffic, apart from residents, to ensure our pupils and wider school community can enter and leave our school safely.

We would appreciate your ongoing support in this matter.

Looking forward to welcoming you all to Primary 1!

Before the summer holidays our senior pupils entered an art competition to design a calendar entry for the new EAC ‘Clean Green’ calendar, which is displayed throughout East Ayrshire.

Congratulations to Eilidh, now in P7, as her design was chosen as one of the runners-up and is published within the calendar.

Your child will have PE in school on the following days.

Primary 1 – Tuesday and Thursday  (Tuesday will be a walk in the community)

Primary 2 – Tuesday and Thursday (Thursday will be a walk in the community)

Primary 3 – Tuesday and Thursday

Primary 4 – Monday and Wednesday

Primary 5 – Monday and Wednesday

Primary 6 – Wednesday and Friday

Primary 7 – Tuesday and Thursday 

For PE sessions, pupils should change into shorts and trainers/gym shoes.  It’s better if PE kits can be kept in school in a PE bag so that they’re always available.  All jewellery must be removed for PE sessions (including earrings). Please ensure all PE items are labelled with your child’s name and let us know if we can help with supplying any PE equipment.

A new Killie Kids (5-12yr olds) and Killie Kickers (3-5yr olds) session at Catrine games hall on the 14th September.
