World Book Day is back again! We are celebrating it in the ECC and the Primary, so head over to the school APP to get all of the details.

We would like to say a huge congratulations to all of the children who participated in the poetry recital competition on Thursday afternoon. We were delighted to welcome Mr Lyall and Mr Airbright, from Mauchline Burns Club once again to judge our overall winners. The P7 overall winner, and therefore awarded the Burns Quaich, was Harris. His recital of ‘To a Louse’ was absolutely outstanding! The P4-7 winners have been invited to recite their poems again at the local Burns event later this month at the Kilmarnock Supporters Club and then again at the Mauchline Holy Fair. Every class are looking at Scots words this term as Scots is our third language, after English and French.
