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!

 

Christmas Fayre 2023 Success!

Christmas fayre – Harwich Museum

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and supported our Christmas Fayre on Saturday!

It was a huge success, raising over £1300 for Parent Council funds, which help our school immensely throughout the year!

Thank you to our wonderful Parent Council for all their hard work in putting together such a large scale event! Another huge thank you goes to Christina Mackie at the Gospel Hall who kindly donated all their takings from their stall at the Fayre, to our funds. This was extremely kind of you, thank you very much!

We are a Trailblazing School!

The Trailblazers initiative developed by Ayrshire Roads Alliance has arrived in New Cumnock. Around the village you will see lampposts with signs that say 5 or 10. This indicates either a 5 or 10 minute walk to the school from that point.
We are encouraging anyone who doesn’t fully walk/ cycle or scoot to school (where possible) to park and stride from these points.
You can use a phone to scan the QR codes on these signs daily to answer road safety questions.
What’s the purpose? We want to encourage as many people to actively travel to school! This has lots benefits for health and well-being as well as for our planet.
Each day we will carry out a quick survey and record anyone who has actively travelled the whole way or from the designated points around the village. It would be very much appreciated if you can support this initiative as much as you possibly can!
