The weather is looking good for our Fun Day this Wednesday!. With that in mind, please ensure that you send your child to school with a hat and sun cream please.  Children should also bring a bottle of water with them.

We are delighted to announce that the winning House for this term is Earth.

The children who are in the winning house will enjoy a trip to Jungle Madness on Wednesday 8th October whilst there they will be given  crisps, cookies & juice if you do not wish your child to have these for allergy purposes please contact the school office.

Sports Day has been cancelled due to the predicted weather, however, children can still wear sports clothing to school on Thursday.

Unfortunatley due to the predicted weather forecast for tomorrow we have taken the difficult and sad decision to cancel our Sports day tomorrow.  As previoulsy stated due to the volume of other events happening within the school over the next 2 weeks we are unable to reschedule Sports Day.

As the school year comes to an end, we are hosting our very last wider achievement assembly of 2025-2026. This Friday sees the last of our wonderful children proudly show off all of their achievements outside of school before we stop for our summer holidays.

If your child has something that they are proud of, please send me a picture and a short blurb on what they have done to:

eaMountCarmel.PS@eastayrshire.org.uk

We can’t wait to see what they have all been up to!

Thank you all for your continuing support,

A reminder that our whole school summer trip to Heads of Ayr Farm Park is this Wednesday, 17th June. 

All children attending MUST be in school for 9am sharp as the buses will be leaving very shortly thereafter and are unable to wait for latecomers.

If your child is not  attending the trip, they will have to stay at home as all our staff are going.

Children can wear shorts, joggers, leggings etc, but should have school uniform on top. They should also have a waterproof jacket and a snack with them. There will be the opportunity to have their snack on arrival at the park.

Packed lunches should be brought in a disposable carrier bag. If your child has requested a packed lunch from the school kitchen, they will collect this in the morning.

The buses will be back in time for our usual 3pm finish, however, in their return children will go back to their classrooms where they will be dismissed from there.
