What a beautiful morning to welcome back the first half of our P2-P7 pupils – we missed you all!

A special welcome to our new P1 pupils who were all looking so smart and ready to learn.

We can’t wait to greet the second half of our pupils tomorrow. Let’s hope the sun is still shining.

EAC Psychological Services have prepared a return to school guide for the parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. We hope you find it useful.

Please note that it was created during the summer break and before the latest return to school announcements so some of the guidance may not now be the most up-to-date.

Parent Guidance Return to school

We would like to wish all of our pupils, parents/carers, extended families and staff a fond farewell for now!

The best of luck to our P7 Leavers – we believe in you and trust that you will take forward all of the learning and values from all of your years at primary school.

We hope everyone takes care over the summer break and we cannot wait to see you all in August!

Best Wishes

Mrs Cross and Ms Dougan x

Calling all Primary 7s!!!!!!

Could you please look in your school bag, under your bed, on your shelves and anywhere else you store your ‘school stuff’ to look for any Mauchline PS library books, school books etc that need to be returned. PLEASE bring them with you tomorrow or Wednesday when you come for your visits. 🙏🏻 Thank you

Please find below information received today from the Robert Burns Academy staff:

P7 Contact Information for The Robert Burns Academy

 We are aware of a small admin error with the contact details provided on this letter. If you have any enquires please use our new email address which is Robert.BurnsAcad@east-ayrshire.gov.uk

 The Cumnock Academy and Auchinleck Academy email inboxes are still being monitored over the summer for anyone who has already made contact this way.

 We would encourage you to monitor our school blog for any further updates including transport arrangements. Our S1s will all be joining us at Cumnock Academy on Wednesday 12^th August, we will direct them to their allocated classrooms as they arrive at school and there will be plenty of staff on hand to assist with this. On their first day we will have a special programme of lessons prepared to answer any question they have about the arrangements in the school.

We are all using IT much more than before and it is essential that we stay safe online.

Following the recent events surrounding the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement, we thought it would be beneficial for the children to recap on some of the learning we covered at assemblies during Black History month in January. We covered topics during the whole month and recapped on topics that we had previously covered over the year that linked. At the bottom of the post is our usual ‘Family Discussion’ article.
