Dog Fouling Campaign
We are working closely with the New Cumnock Development Trust to tackle the ongoing issue of dog fouling in our community.
We were delighted to see so many of you create campaign posters!
We would love to have these on display around our village, so can you please bring them with you to school or hand them in at the school main office and we will get them to Tammy at the NCDT.
Thank you!

Please visit our Parent Zone of the school blog where we have added new resources designed to support our parents/carers. (Click on the link below or click on the Parent Zone tab in the menu above) Please note the new addition of resources from the Scottish Attainment Challenge Team which shares Family Learning Activities designed to provide information and links to help parents, families and children enjoy maths activities together.
In addition to this they have also created a series of videos which share some of the approaches to teaching and learning in numeracy, calculation strategies and terminology currently being developed across schools in East Ayrshire.

SURF Awards 2021
To round off our short week at school we wanted to share with you the wonderful work we have received from members of our Pupil Council.
New Cumnock were shortlisted to the final 3 in the SURF Awards for ‘Most Improved Place in Scotland’. Mrs McMurdo and Mrs McNulty attended the live virtual ceremony last night. Unfortunately we didn’t win, but Team New Cumnock will always be our winner!
In preparation for the event we asked our Pupil Council representatives to send us videos or words about why they think living in New Cumnock is so great? Their responses were so wonderful we had to share them with you all!
