Careers Advisers from Skills Development Scotland have now delivered the webinar for parents and carers which gave an overview of Scottish Apprenticeships. During the webinar the advisers gave information about Foundation, Modern and Graduate Apprenticeships. This was the latest in a series of webinars aimed at supporting parents and carers to help young people make smart career choices.
For those that were unable to make the event, the video, which includes full subtitles and BSL interpretation can be found here: https://youtu.be/qqA0SVRSTZk

Now that schools are back, the Cumnock Chronicle are looking for parents/carers to send in pictures of your little ones heading into school for their first day, to be featured in the newspaper to mark this special occasion.
The Cumnock Chronicle are running a pull-out of P7 leavers and they are looking for East Ayrshire schools south of Kilmarnock to submit individual pictures of pupils who are finishing up for inclusion in the paper.
They are looking for individual photos of pupils to be sent across to ayrshireschools@newsquest.co.uk along with the pupils name and school they are leaving.
Would you believe it’s the Summer Holiday’s already!!?!?
We have plenty coming up for the young people in our community and it’s all FREE!
See attached our flyers and below the registration links. Pre registration is essential! Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate people who “turn up on the day” without having completed the pre-registration forms. So, if you your child is undecided at this point then please still register them and that way they can still attend!
We can’t wait to get started and make some amazing memories in 2021!
‘NC Parents/Carers I am looking for your help! I am currently in the early stages of looking at the potential delivery of some activity for young people over the Summer Holiday period!
I would really appreciate it (if relevant) if you could complete the below form answering a few short questions about what you think your child would like to get up to in the holidays!
Over the coming year in my role as ICF Community Engagement & Volunteer Coordinator I am keen to provide more accessible sporting and leisure activities in our community. Suitable for people of all ages and abilities.
To ensure that the activities provided are what the community wants I would be grateful if you could complete the survey below, using the link. It would be of great benefit to the programme if everyone in your household could complete the survey.
I understand that you may feel at this time that you are receiving a lot of information digitally and this can be frustrating, for myself included. However, your participation is massively appreciated and hopefully in the near future when it is safe to do so we can once again have community conversations in person.
Today our House Captains fulfilled their first official duty by attending the public service of remembrance at the Castle Miner’s Lamp Memorial, marking 70 years since the Knockshinnoch Disaster.
It was heart warming to see so many of the local community in attendance, to commemorate the memories of the mine workers who lost their lives in the tragic event all those years ago.
Our House Captains laid a wreath on behalf of the school and spoke with local counsellors. They were a true credit to our school!
Please see below for information a public meeting being held on Wednesday 26th February from 11am-1pm in the Town Hall to gather suggestions on how we can commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the Knockshinnoch Disaster.
