Here is what we would like you to join in with every day next week…
We will also have a WOW tracker challenge -100 house points for each day children walk to school and log on the tracker. Class with the most logged active journeys will get an extra play!
May is a month traditionally dedicated to Our Lady and the Rosary. Mary, the mother of God, was a loving mother and a model for us all.
During this month, all our classes are making a special effort to pray the Rosary to help us to reflect on the life of Mary and Jesus.
As the Mount Carmel Missio Champions, Primary 4 put together some ideas to help us all learn about Mary and to pray the rosary. We distributed these to all classes.
Our Lady, Queen of Peace, pray for us.
On Wednesday, our Primary 4 and Primary 5 classes will be taking part in outdoor activities to celebrate Natural Scotland week. We were hoping to go to the Dean Park; however, due to the Mayfest the park will be closed. The classes are very excited to be den building, making smores and roasted marshmallows in the morning and then we can continue with our rehearsals for MATILDA in the afternoon.
Please ensure that the children have suitable outdoor clothing on (jogging bottoms or leggings) with school uniform on top. They should also have suitable outdoor shoes on as we will be on the grass.
Thank you for your continuing support,
Mrs McCreadie and Mrs MacKinnon
A gentle reminder that our Primary 5 class are heading to the North West Bowling Club on Monday morning. The class will be leaving at around 9:15am. Please ensure that the children have suitable clothing on (including flat shoes for the bowling green) as we will be walking there and back. The children are very excited to be taking part in this experience for the next few weeks.
Good Luck to our Primary 7 children who will be attending their first full transition day at St Josephs tomorrow.
Reminder that children can access St Josephs school transport on the day using the information previously provided.

Thank you to Friends of Mount Carmel who recently donated some new PE equipment to the school.
We received footballs, basketballs, shuttlecocks, tennis balls and tennis sets.
Primary 5 pupils were some of the first to sample some of the new equipment:
Thank you to Fr. Jim and Sisters Mabel and Juliet for an interesting and fun morning in Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church.
We really enjoyed learning all about the sacred vessels such as the chalice, paten, and ciborium used during Holy Mass, and we even had an opportunity to hold them.
We enjoyed listening to Fr. Jim explain importance of the Eucharist, and we talked lots about our upcoming First Communion Days.
Please keep us in your prayers as we take this beautiful step in our faith journey.
As we near the end of our school year, we want to go out with a bang! Our Friends and Parent Council have organised a fundraising event to help raise some funds for our children in Mount Carmel. This will be in the form of a House hamper raffle.
We will be holding another Dress Down Day on Friday 31st May and are asking that each child (if they can) bring in an item of their house colour for the raffle. For example if your child was in the red house (fire), they could bring in a tin of ready salted Pringles. If you could support us with this we would very much appreciate it. The tickets for the raffle will then be sold for £1 and we will have 4 winners, a winner for each of our houses.
Good Luck everyone!!
We could not be more proud of our incredible P6 and P7 ‘Disco Divas’ who performed at The Gaiety Theatre in Ayr tonight as part of Dance Fest 24. They gave their all and most importantly had fun! Well done girls! 🤩👏🏻 🪩💙

As part of there preparation Primary 4 children (those making communion) will stay behind after mass on Friday 3/5/2024, and Father Jim will offer the children the opportunity to taste the offeratory wine & host (which wont be blessed)
Please continue to keep our children in your prayers.
