During Term 4, as part of our Health and Wellbeing curriculum for all stages, the children will be covering outcomes within the Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood programme.
It is important that we keep you informed of sensitive topics we are covering and make you aware of what will be taught at Early level (ECC /P1), First level (P2-P4) and Second level (P5-7)
The video below will provide you with all the information about RSHP and what will be covered at each level.
We hope you find this information useful when discussing these topics at home with your child.
If you are unsure of anything or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the school.
Once again we were blown away by the high standard of poetry recitations and singing at our recent Burns / Scots Verse Competition. You can find photographs of all of the finalists on the link below.
We are excited to be holding another ‘Let’s Connect’ wellbeing afternoon as part of Children’s Mental Health Week.
You are invited into school with your child/children on Wednesday 29th of January from 1.30pm-2.45pm. There will be lots of fun activities on offer. Please see the poster below.
Please complete the online Glow form in the link below to allow us to plan activities according to numbers.
Pupils from our winning house for this term, Afton, enjoyed a special reward yesterday. We arranged a silent disco for the house winning pupils and they all had a great time.
I would like to thank Smith’s Coaches for kindly purchasing the token tube machine and tokens for the school. This has been part of the relaunch of the house reward system, and the children love being awarded house points and putting them in the token tubes. We are also going to have a Smith’s Coaches House Reward trophy or shield that will be awarded at Prize Giving. This will be presented to the winning house over the course of the year and will be separate from the Village Store House Sport’s Cup awards.
Starting in January we will be taking part in East Ayrshire’s Shoot to Saturn campaign. We will be encouraging our children to actively travel to school by walking, scooting or cycling.
If children travel to school by any of these methods they will earn S-miles each day. These will be calculated each week with a winning ‘Active Traveller’ class being announced. If children are not able to walk, cycle or scoot to school, we will make a circuit available at playtime for them to earn S-miles.
Please see the attached letter for more information.
We hope to see lots of active travellers in terms 3 and 4.
Following a very successful swap shop at Halloween, we are now kindly asking for any unwanted Christmas Jumpers, t-shirts or dresses, to be donated ahead of Christmas.
These will be available (for free) at our Christmas Fayre and Christmas shows.
