NCDT P7 Boys Group
NEW CUMNOCK BOYS GROUP
NCDT are looking to gauge interest in creating a “Boys Group” for young people age P7 to come along and socialise and participate in activities in a safe and welcoming space.
At this point we want to find out if people would be interested and what activities both parents/carers and young people would be looking to take part in. Also are there topics such as mental health etc you would like to see us discuss and look into.
*PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A REGISTER OF INTEREST ONLY THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THIS GROUP WILL GO AHEAD*
Journey to Jupiter continues…
Parents/carers,
We are continuing to encourage our young people to walk, cycle, scoot or park and stride to school as part of our Journey to Jupiter challenge in partnership with Clean Green East Ayrshire.
We will continue to log S-Miles gained by those who have travelled to school in an environmentally friendly manner each day. These results are then sent away to the Clean Green EA team who will collate the results of all participating schools in the local authority in the hope that we gain enough S-Miles to power our rocket all the way to Jupiter!
As we shared previously, we have concerns with the dangerous parking we have witnessed around our school grounds which makes it difficult for our children to safely use the footpaths around our school.
Click on the link below to our previous post which highlighted the 5 safe car parks within walking distance of our school which we encourage all our families to use when travelling by car.
Please listen to the message from our young people to help keep everybody safe and healthy as we encourage environmentally friendly travel to school!
We wish you a Merry Christmas!
NCPS Road Safety Campaign
Parents/carers, we need your help!
We are trying to encourage our young people to walk, cycle, scoot or park and stride to school as part of our Journey to Jupiter challenge in partnership with Clean Green East Ayrshire, but we are faced with the ongoing issue of dangerous parking around our school grounds, making it difficult for our children to safely use the footpaths around our school.
Our Clean Green Transport Team would like to make you aware of 5 safe car parks within walking distance of our school.
Please watch our video and listen to the message from our young people to help keep everybody safe!

They are on display by the Community Entrance. They are all labelled by size, please help yourself! The Community Entrance doors will be open 9-9.15am and 3-3.15pm until Thursday this week.
We are also looking for donations of PE kit (shorts/joggers/indoor shoes) to keep in our changing rooms for anyone who has forgotten their kit. If you have anything suitable at home, please send them in with your child or hand in at the main office.
Many thanks for your continued support!

Trailblazers Evaluation Surveys
Dear Parent/Carer,
Since the summer break, New Cumnock Primary School has been participating in the Trailblazers trial – a joint Ayrshire project looking to improve road safety and increase active and sustainable travel to school. To understand the impact of the trial, a short survey has been prepared to understand views on the trial and any changes in travel behaviours and attitudes. I would be most grateful if you could take a few minutes to share your thoughts via the short survey provided at the following link:
Trailblazers Parent/Carer Survey
The deadline for the survey response is the 15th of December.
Thanks in advance for your support.
P7 BBC Burns LA.B Project
What an exciting couple of days we have had in P7 where we have been working with BBC Scotland Learning on a Burns LAB Project.
We have been reciting and recording poetry and creating stop motion animations.
We can’t wait for you to see our work with Jo Hall and her team when it is aired in January. We will keep you posted!
