We are considering the possibility of organising a Walking Bus from Gargieston Primary School to Ayrshire College for any of our girls who would be interested in going to participate in football.
We are looking for parent volunteers who could possibly assist on a rotational basis to allow our girls to attend these free sessions.
Many Thanks to Mrs Errici who kindly entered Gargieston Primary School into The Nessy Learning Wedding Competition where we were drawn as winners!
The fabulous prize is a Super School Licence giving 200 children full access to all of the Nessy learning programs.
We are delighted with this prize and can’t wait to start using this fabulous resource. Thank You Mrs Errici!
Our first Wider Achievement Assembly will be held on Monday 1st October 2018.
If your child has achieved success at a club out with school, please send in their award, badge, medal or certificate on Friday 28th September 2018.
Please see your email for further information.

A timetable for classes and the ECC to have the opportunity to buy books, along with times for parents to pop in with their child or children at the end of the school day, will be posted on the blog by Thursday.
Mrs Campbell
As the children mentioned during the Reach for the Stars presentation, we have introduced ‘electives’ in school.
Mrs McKee and Mrs McLaughland consulted with the children to gather their views about which activities they would like to see on offer. Electives should be motivating and engaging for the children and activities that they really enjoy and look forward to participating in. Mrs McKee was delighted to see so many active electives being proposed and has already met with our new Active Schools Co-ordinator, Cherryl Fulton, in order to offer as many varied sporting opportunities as possible. There were also many other electives ideas suggested by the children from cooking and crafts to K,Nex and knitting!
We will do our best to offer a range of electives each block and keep our ideas fresh, creative and innovative therefore encouraging our children to ‘Reach for the Stars’!
