As you are all aware, we began our RespectMe journey during Anti-Bullying Week. We would appreciate your time in filling out our questionnaire as this will give us an indication of opinions and perceptions of what bullying is and the implications it may have. This will give us a starting point in our journey and will allow us to measure change.

How can we help you this Christmas?
We are dedicated to supporting our families and are aware that family circumstances can change, particularly in the current financial climate.
We want to know, if we can help you this Christmas?
- Do you need support with vouchers for food/gas/electric?
- Do you need financial support?
- Do you need support to get food over the festive period?
- Do you need help to get clothes and gifts for your children?
If your answer is YES to any of the above, please get in touch!
We want to help!
Please fill in the contact form below and we will be in touch with you…
Please note, the information gathered is strictly confidential.
Don’t forget we also have our Winter Jacket Project in school. If you have any winter coats your children have outgrown, we are gladly taking donations. Or if you are in need of a warm coat for your child this winter, please contact the school and let us know which size and we will source one for you.
Parent’s Group Christmas Crafts
Today our Parent’s Group had the knitting needles out and got started on their Christmas craft for our Christmas Fair.
We can’t wait for you all to see our Christmas Pom Pom Gnomes!
Breakfast Club Volunteers Needed
We are very keen to get our school Breakfast Club up and running soon!
To support us in doing so, we are looking for parent/carer volunteers to help us to supervise this Mon-Fri 8.15am-8.45am.
If this is something you would be keen to support us with, please fill in the contact form with your details below.
Please specify which days you would be available to help, as this will help us to create a rota when the club is established.
A PVG will be carried out and paid for by the school for those who are selected.
Many thanks for your continued support.
Wool Donations Wanted
Our Parent’s Group are looking for donations of wool to help with our Christmas craft sessions. Preferably in festive colours of red and green if possible, however, we would be delighted with any donations.
If you can help us, please send in your wool with your child to give to Mrs Bradford or Mrs McNulty.
Many thanks in advance.
Christmas Fair 26/11/22
We are delighted to share that our much-loved Christmas Fair is BACK!!!
Come and join us on Saturday 26th November from 10am until 12pm and enjoy our stalls with a hot snack and entertainment.
This year is set to be our biggest and best fair yet! We can’t wait to welcome our supporters and small businesses. Come and visit us to see:
Parent’s Evening success!
We were delighted to welcome our families back into school this week to visit their child’s classroom at Parent’s Evening.
We hope hope you enjoyed the opportunity to see your child’s work and meet their teacher.
A huge thank you to our outside agencies such as Childsmile, Active Schools, EA Young Carers and our Parent Council for showing their support by also coming along to meet our families and discuss their roles in supporting our children.
School Christmas Fair 2022 – Donations needed!
With our upcoming Christmas Fair on Saturday 26th November, we are on the look out for the following donations…
-
Good quality second hand toys for our toy stall.
-
Donations for a bottle stall. (This can be anything from a bottle of tomato sauce or bubble bath to a bottle of wine or a spirit.)
-
Donations of shortbread or mince pies.
-
Donations of raffle prizes.
We will be taking donations from Monday 14th November. These can be given to your child’s class teacher or handed in at the main office. (Please note that alcohol donations should not be sent in with children and should be handed in at the main office by parents/carers.)
Winter Jacket Project 2022
With the cold weather fast approaching, we believe that every child should have a warm jacket for winter.
Please help us to make this happen by donating your out-grown jackets and we will find a child at New Cumnock Primary who can reuse it. Either send these in with your child to school or hand them in to the main office.
If you have a child at home who needs a winter jacket, we want to help you!
We will have the donated jackets stored in our Parents Room which you can access at any point during the school day, just come to the main office.
Alternatively, please complete the form below and state the gender and size of jacket you require and we will try our best to source one for you and send it home with your child.
Parental Engagement – Literacy and Numeracy Packs
Apologies for the delay, but our Literacy and Numeracy parental packs have now been sent home with every ‘oldest and only’ child in the school, thus ensuring we have both packs sent home to every one of our families.
We hope you find the information and activities in these helpful! If you have any questions about the content in these, please contact Mrs McNulty on danielle.mcnulty@eastayrshire.org.uk.
Thank you again for your continued partnership in supporting your child’s learning.
