Primary 7, School Life

P7 Residential 2025

Leave a comment

Our P7s and accompanying staff had the best time and made memories that will last a lifetime!

We had such a busy few days, and enjoyed a huge variety of activities ranging from Paddleboarding and Windsurfing to Archery and Team Building.

We feasted like kings and queens with rolls and sausage/bacon/egg for breakfast, soup and rolls for lunch, and burgers and pizza for dinner (in addition to the numerous snacks and endless cups of tea!)

A huge thank you to all the great staff and instructors at the Galloway Activity Centre!

Please keep an eye on Learning Journals for more uploads from Mrs Frew.  Here is a wee taster of photos below.

S1 Transition Biscuit and a Blether

Leave a comment

Calling all new S1’s that transitioned from New Cumnock Primary School!

As promised, Mrs Clarke and Mrs Bradford are hosting a “Biscuit and a Blether” session to check-in with our most recent cohort of S1’s!

FRIDAY 2ND SEPTEMBER 2022 @ 3.05PM,  ENTER VIA COMMUNITY ENTRANCE!

This is an opportunity for new S1 pupils to check in with primary staff they trust, whilst they are still building relationships with staff at the Robert Burns Academy, and have a chat about their new school, subjects, friends, or any  worries they have.

This is not compulsory for pupils, but we would love to see you!

Uniform Bank FRIDAY 29th outside MAIN OFFICE

Leave a comment

Are your children growing out of their uniform?  Don’t want to waste money buying new uniform so late in the school year?  Why not visit the UNIFORM BANK this Friday (29th April) outside the MAIN OFFICE from 2.30pm onwards!

The Clean Green Schools Award team have been thinking of ways to recycle, reduce and reuse throughout the school.  One of the ways they have decided to do this is through the development of a school uniform bank.

There will be sweatshirts and jackets available in a variety of sizes. Come along and pick up any items FOR FREE!

The uniform bank will be available on the last Friday of each month from now until the Summer break!

Friday 29th April 2.30-3
