Gargieston Primary would like to say a big thank you to Martin O’Neill, manager at Specsavers, Kilmarnock for the very kind donation of nearly 90 high- vis jackets which can be used by our pupils on outings and at school clubs such as the running club or any other occasions when a number of pupils are outwith our school grounds. Thanks to all our models from each Base within the school.

We are delighted to be introducing the Massage In Schools Programme with our pupils.  This programme has proven to be highly successful in reducing anxiety and stress levels and improving confidence and concentration.

Unfortunately, children (and adults!) often associate relaxation with screen time.  We want to encourage our children to develop skills and strategies to ‘switch off’ and relax which they can take with them into adulthood.

Full details will be sent to you in an email today.

We are also working with our colleagues from EAST to adapt the programme and introduce it to our children within the ECC.

Well done to our first P4-7 Superstars – Finlay, Harry, Chiara, Katy and Lucy!!

We would like to thank Chloe Meechan and her family for tending to our school flower beds during the summer holidays.  Chloe is a keen gardener and gave up her own time to weed the gardens and prepare them for the new term.  You can see the fantastic results of her labour in the pictures below.

Thank you Chloe and we hope that your dedication to our gardens will inspire others to join our Gardening Club this session.
