Early Closure Summer 2024 Transport Update

The Summer School closure on Friday 28th June 2024 whereby all schools close at 1pm will no doubt have an impact on pupils who access school transport. We have many linked contracts that serve both primary pupils as well as secondary pupils across both Mainstream and ASN Schools.

To ensure sufficient transport provision on this date and to ease congestion, all contractors will arrange to collect primary children at 12.25pm. 

                                         9am-12pm

Next Thursday 20th June is World of Work Day for the whole school. Children can come to school dressed as they please or as a profession they want to be.

Some of our wonderful parents/carers have kindly given up their time to come in to speak to and demonstrate their professions with the children. We have people  from the Fire Service, Police, Health  Visitors  and Nurses to name a few. We will also have coaches from Kilmarnock Football Club  and there will be refreshments for the adults.

We were delighted to receive copies of the most recent Missio Newsletter which features  some lovely pictures of some of our pupils and a touching tribute to Father Martin. The feature details the hard work both he and Mount Carmel Primary dedicated to Missio Scotland and to making Mount Carmel a five star Missio Scotland School.
