Power Down
Big Walk and Wheel week
Just a reminder that we are taking part in the
Big Walk and Wheel to School this week (18th -22nd March).
Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel 2024 is the challenge’s 15th year and we would love you to take part and help make it the largest and most successful one yet.
Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is the UK’s largest inter-school walking, wheeling, scooting and cycling challenge. It inspires pupils to make active journeys to school, improve air quality in their neighbourhood and discover how these changes benefit their world.
The event aims to encourage more families to travel to school actively and help create healthier and happier communities.
This is also a great opportunity to boost our S-miles on our Journey to Jupiter too!! Remember we count all family members who are walking, cycling and scooting to school for our Bonus S-miles!

DINNAE FORGET YOUR CADDY!
We are taking part in East Ayrshire Council’s Food Waste Recycling Initiative called Dinnae Forget Your Caddy! We are trying to encourage our community to –
- Recycle food waste at home and present your caddy for collection each week.
- Help to raise our Community Caddy Count .
Can you help us reduce food waste? Here’s how it works…
See the links below for short video clips on recycling our food waste-
Can you please remember to put out your caddy every week for collection and help us raise our Caddy Count in Mauchline?
As part of this initiative we ran a school competition to name our own school Caddy and the winner is…
Brodie Adams in Primary 4. Well done Brodie!
He came up with the idea of calling the Caddy
Obin-Wan Kenobi!
