We can do this Mauchline PS & ECC!

Thank you so much to every one who donated to the Christmas charity appeal. I am overwhelmed by your kindness and generosity. This will make a huge difference to so many vulnerable children and adults this Christmas!!

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy time spent with loved ones.
Take care and thanks again!

Love,

Thank you so much to the very kind parents/carers who have handed in some books for us to add to our library.

Please remember to have a look for any ‘Mauchline PS’ library or reading books when you are clearing our for Santa’s visit.

Just give them to your child to return or hand them into the office.

Well done to everyone who supported our Be Safe Be Seen Day by wearing bright colours.  It has been great to see all the photos. See if you can spot yourself below.

Well done Primary 3/4. You all look super bright.

It is so important to wear bright colours during winter and today has been the perfect day to practice.

Thank you.

Our library is still a little emptier than it was after providing reading books for everyone during school closure earlier in the year.  So we are asking everyone to have another clear out at home.

Please have a look for any misplaced school library or reading books and return them to school. We can quarantine them and then get them straight back on the shelves.

Also, if you have any ‘used/unwanted’ children’s books that are in good condition, please feel free to donate them to the school. We can check if they are one of our Accelerated Reader books and add them to our colour-coded library.
