Our song was played on the West FM Breakfast Show this morning.  Here is a wee video of the song being played by Billy Kirkwood.  Well done everyone and thanks to West FM for kindly playing the song!

Well done again to Kayla for raising money for Combat Stress.  This donation now makes the total £600.  We are very proud of you Kayla!

Our Heads and Deputes were delighted to take the donations to our local food provision ‘Helping Hands’.

Thanks to everyone who contributed this week.

We are delighted to announce that we have achieved our Rights Respecting Schools Silver Accreditation.  A lot of work has gone into this and we are extremely proud.  This has been a whole school team effort but a huge well done must go to Mrs Bradley and the Rights Respecting Schools committee.  We look forward to officially receiving our award and continuing our journey towards gold.

We want to share some pictures of our new foyer.   As shown in the previous post Maybole Upholstery kindly refurbished our bench and Mr Kelly also painted this.  We have also created a display using some amazing artefacts that we had in the school reflecting the proud mining history of the village.

I am sure that you will agree the foyer is looking great, we look forward to being able to welcome you into the school to enjoy our lovely new environment.

We are absolutely delighted with our newly upholstered bench in the front foyer.  Thank you to Mr Kelly for the paintwork and a huge thanks to Alan Green and Maybole Upholstery for the new cushions upholstered in our school colours.  We are extremely grateful for this contribution, it looks great!

Please find a link to our video of some of our children reciting Scottish and Burns poems.  Unfortunately, we are unable to hold our annual celebration and competition this year, but we still wanted to showcase the talents of our children.  A huge well done and thank you to everyone who sent a recitation, we have included them all in the video.

Our P6 and 7 children are currently working away on their Burns’ Supper tasks.  We will choose some of their contributions and share our virtual Burns’ Supper with you over the next week or two. 

We hope you enjoy the children reciting their poems, they have all done a fantastic job and as always, we are extremely proud. Well done!
