The whole school are once again taking part in Dyslexia Awareness Week. We had an assembly on Monday to share tips and ideas about helping others with Dyslexia and also to raise awareness of how children with Dyslexia are feeling. Wednesday is ‘No Pens’ day and we are all looking forward to hearing about the exciting activities the classes all took part in.

It is back! As of 8/10/18 look out for our FABULOUS art work in the shop windows in the village. We hope you enjoy looking at our arty endeavours. A big thank you to all the shops that were willing to offer their windows for display. Let the school know what you thought!

The Scottish Sun has teamed up with Collins Big Cat to give primary schools the chance to claim £550 worth of free books, suitable for P1 through to P7.

To claim the books we need your help to collect 3,500 tokens, which will be printed in The Scottish Sun and The Scottish Sun on Sunday from 24^th September to 18^th November.

A box is in the school library for pupils to deposit tokens.

Please find below the ‘Parent Friendly’ guide to the School Improvement Plan for session 18-19.

Just a reminder that it is Dress Down Day on Friday 28th September for school funds. Please donate through Parent Pay or PayPoint.

No football colours please.

All parents are invited along to the Parent Council meeting being held in the school on Tuesday 25th September at 7pm. We are looking forward to the year ahead and hopefully having some new members to boost the numbers!! 🙂

Our first Rag Bag Collection of the session will be on Friday 28th September.
If you have any clothes, shoes, belts etc. that are still quite good but of no use to you please bag them up and hand them in to the school. The pupils will all be given rag bags next week with more details on them. Don’t worry if you can’t have them ready for the 28th, we can re-fill our bin ready for the next collection in 2019.
The clothes are weighed on the lorry and we are given money depending on how much we collect. The money is put to good use for the benefit of the school and the pupils.
Thanks

Miss Millar is starting a netball club for pupils in Primary 6 & 7 on Monday nights from 3.05pm – 4pm and adults (parents of pupils at Mauchline Primary) are welcome along to play too! You are still welcome along even if your child isn’t attending the club.

So get your trainers ready and come along to our first session on the 10th of September!
