January 20, 2025 Mrs McNulty Leave a comment

🤩 #Fitfest Ambassadors 🤩

Calling all NCPS Primary 6s and 7s how would you like the opportunity to become a “Fitfest Ambassador” – well now is your chance.

In partnership with NCPS, NCDT are looking to recruit a group of young people in either P6 or P7 to help with the planning and organisational side of Fitfest! This Includes having your own portion of budget to spend on an activity or event at #FitFest2025 and of course a tshirt and hoodie!

So if you have a passion for all things #fitfest and are keen to be involved in the NC community then we would love to hear from you.

Young people will be asked to complete an application form and also attend a short interview so we can learn and hear lots about them.

Here is some key information for anyone who may be interested in applying:

⭐️ 27/01/25 – Tammy from NCDT & Geraldine 🦒will attend NCPS Get Together to explain #fitfest ambassadors to the whole school. Application forms will be given to the P6 and P7 teachers to distribute to anyone who wishes to apply.

⭐️ 30/01/25 – Completed applications must be returned to the NCDT Office (21 Castle) no later than 4pm on this day.

⭐️ 03/02/25 – All young people will be notified as to whether they have reached interview stage or not.

⭐️ 04/02/25 – Interviews will take place in NCPS.

Most importantly any young person wishing to be involved must be available to attend Fitfest on 25/05/25 and have permission from a parent/guardian.

We know how much the young people in our community LOVE #fitfest and we cannot wait for them to be involved in making 2025 EVEN better!

Please like, share and tag any young people who you think would be a great addition to our team!

Parents/carers,

Prior to the holiday, we shared with you via the app and school blog that in Term 4, we will be delivering Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenting (RSHP), as part of our Health and Wellbeing curriculum, across all stages of the school.

In line with East Ayrshire guidance, we contacted you to inform you of this.

The programme of study is generated in accordance with National guidelines. The contents of which, form a key element of personal, social and health education in our school and is an important part of children’s preparations for adult life.

Parental guidance letters can be found on the original post or within the Curriculum – Health and Wellbeing – RSHP tab on our school blog.

I write to invite you attend a Parent Workshop session where we can discuss the content of this curricular area at each stage and share with you the resources our staff will be using to support its delivery.

This will be held on Monday 22nd April 4-5pm.

I hope you can make it. Should you be unable to attend and would like to meet to discuss at another point, please contact me via email to let me know. danielle.mcnulty@eastayrshire.org.uk

RSHP Parent Steering Group

November 2, 2023 Mrs McNulty Leave a comment

RSHP Video Resources

Members of our parent body have raised concerns about the content of Relationships Sexual Health and Parenting (RSHP) lessons and have already highlighted their intention to extract their children from this area of the curriculum.

As part of our School Improvement Plan, Mrs McNulty is therefore looking to create a Parent Group to develop knowledge and understanding, as well as confidence, within our parents and carers, to ensure effective delivery and outcomes of RSHP here at New Cumnock Primary.

Is this something you feel strongly about or feel you have little knowledge of? Do you have time to join us to share your thoughts or questions?

Please complete the Form below and Mrs McNulty will contact all parents who have registered, to arrange a meeting in the near future.
