Red Nose Day 17/3/23

18 March – Comic Relief Day – Two Waters Primary School

Primary 3 are organising Red Nose Day this Friday 17th March.

They are asking everyone to come to school dressed in brightly coloured clothing to spread the cheer. We would kindly ask you to donate £1 through ParentPay to raise money for Comic Relief.

There will be a Talent Show held that afternoon for the pupils. No donation is required for pupils to attend this, this is just for fun and raise awareness. ❤️

Burns Candlelight Tea Success!

Last week we hosted our first School Burns Supper with a Candlelight Tea theme! It was a hugely successful and enjoyable evening. We are extremely grateful to the support shown by our families and partner agencies such as the New Cumnock Burns Club and the Ayrshire Burns Association for attending. We were thoroughly entertained by a variety of songs, instruments and verse speaking. What an array of talent we have in New Cumnock! We feel this will be the first of many Burns events hosted in our school! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🤩

A huge thank you to Emma J for capturing these images for us on the night!

World Book Day 2/3/23

When And Why Is World Book Day Celebrated? - WorldAtlas

Next Thursday 2nd March, we will be celebrating World Book Day. We have lots of fun activities in store for that day, but we are also inviting pupils to dress up!

There is not cost for this. We are asking children to come to school dressed as either their favourite character from a book, or dressed in their pyjamas and to bring along their favourite bedtime story.

Please note, we do not want this to be an added expense to our families, in what is already a difficult financial climate, we simply want to celebrate our love of books and have a fun day doing so! Please see below some inexpensive costume  ideas and how we can support you…

To support out families, we are asking if you have any donations of clothing which would be suitable for dressing up as a book character or pyjamas, we would welcome these to be added to our clothing bank located within the school, which will then be made available to our families.

If you can help us, please send you donations into school and these will be made available to our families from the reception area next Tuesday and Wednesday whilst the children are off school due to Industrial Action. Simply come along to the main entrance, and a member of staff present will help you.
