Sticky Fingers After-School Club

Dear Parent/Carer

New Cumnock Primary School are delighted to inform you that we will be running a new after-school club based around Emotional Literacy which will be open to all p2 and p3 children. This will help support our children to understand and express their emotions and feelings in a positive and helpful manner, within a safe, nurturing and fun environment.

Each session will include an after-school healthy snack which children will be able to enjoy during the delivery of a specific emotion based story. This will then be followed with a linked craft.

Sessions will take place every Tuesday from 25th April until 23rd May from 3:00 till 4:15.

If you would like your child to take part, please sign the slip attached to the letter which your child will be given tomorrow and hand back in to school before Friday 21st April. You will be contacted on Monday 24th if your child has been allocated a space.

Kind Regards

Mrs L Ramsay and Mrs T Bradford

HEAD LICE

Dear Parents/Carers,Recently, cases of head lice have been identified across the school and we wanted to make sure you were kept informed.

Whilst lice are nothing more than a nuisance, it is important that children are checked on a weekly basis so that any head lice can be dealt with quickly and before they are allowed to spread.

We suggest that you check your child’s head regularly.

Here is some simple advice you may wish to follow to keep head lice at bay.

  • Check your child’s hair once a week.
  • Use a proper detection comb. The comb is usually white in colour so that lice can be easily identified.
  • If you find live lice, visit the Pharmacy where you will be able to access the treatment under the minor ailments scheme and remember to check the whole family.
  • Further advice on the treatment of head lice can be found on NHS website            Head lice and nits – NHS (www.nhs.uk)

Makaton Taster Session

Tea and coffee are always available and sometimes we even have a biscuit. Please feel free to email me for more information, or if you intend to join us. (Just so i can have enough cups ready)

Hope to see you there,

Winter Weather Support

We shared this with our families a couple of weeks ago, however I just wanted to put out a little reminder as this is a great opportunity to support our children and their families during this time of year. Any questions feel free to contact me on tracey.bradford@eastayrshire.org.uk ………..

Due to the rise in fuel bills and the recent cold weather, we at NCPS would like to offer our support to any of our families who might benefit from outdoor clothes, footwear,  and anything else to help with keeping warm. If you would like to access this support, or any other support which we might be able to provide please complete the attached form and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
