World Book Day
What a pity we shall not be in school tomorrow for World Book Day, however, any ECC, or Primary 1 to Primary 4 children who would like to still wear their costumes can do so on Monday instead.
What better way to spend a chilly World Book Day than curling up with a good book – happy reading everyone!

Thanks to the GFG
Everyone at the school would like to say a big thank you to the GFG for their kind donation of money to buy more handheld and headset microphones and accessories to complete our sounds system. We cannot thank you enough for your generosity to the school and to supporting and enhancing the children’s learning. Mrs. McLaughland, the staff and all the pupils.
Congratulations, Laura Mitchell!
Very well done to Laura Mitchell in Primary 7! The whole class entered a national photography competition called My Place Photography. After some photography tips from Grange Art & Design Department, Primary 7 took to Kilmarnock Town Trail to take their snaps. Laura went one further and went out to take some of her own too. She managed to come third from all the hundreds of entries from all across Scotland with her photograph Caprington In The Mist. I’m sure you’ll agree it is a stunning picture of a magnificent building we have right on our doorstep! Once again, congratulations, Laura!

They had the chance to meet Miss McBride PT of Transition as well as other teachers. Community policeman PC McKenna also spoke to the future S1. Approximately 210 children attended the day.
The next Transition event is the Science Fair which will take place on the morning of Friday March 9th.
