Tomorrow 6 of our pupils will visit Belmont Academy in Ayr where they will perform in either verse speaking, singing or instrumental, representing our school in the Ayrshire Burns Competition 2022.
I’m sure you will all join me in wishing these youngsters all the very best! I know they will do us proud and showcase their wonderful talents!

Scotland is well known for supporting people in need of refuge and safety.
Article 38 of the United Nations Convention for the Rights of the Child says that “governments around the world must do everything they can to protect and care for children affected by war and armed conflicts.”
This Friday (25/3/22), we are asking all children to come to school dressed in the colours of the Ukrainian flag- YELLOW and BLUE.
We are asking all those who are able, to pay a £1 donation via ParentPay for the Ukrainian Refugee Appeal.
Let’s raise as much money as possible and show our support for Ukrainian refugees.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone in their YELLOW and BLUE outfits!
