Thank you so much to everyone who took part in our Big Schools Bird Watch! It was amazing to see how many different birds are in the area! I have submitted our results to the RSPB by calculating an average number over the 5 days. Below I have attached our certificate and a couple of charts so you can see the data we collected.

Here are some pieces of work submitted by P2/3.
One of our tasks this week was to create a Dog Poo Bag Holder to support the community with tackling the current dog fouling issue. We will be working with the New Cumnock Development Trust to place these Dog Poo Bag Holders throughout New Cumnock. If you wish your Dog Poo Bag Holder to be used, please drop it off at the school at our designated drop off zone. This can be found at the entrance of the front office. Please drop off your Poo Bag Holder and a member of staff will collect at the end of the school day. The drop off zone will be here Friday 12 Feb, Tuesday 16th Feb, Thursday 18th Feb and Friday 19th Feb. This will be available during school hours (9.00am-3.00pm).

Here is Emma from P6-7 explaining what this right is:
& here is an excellent example of an informative poster by Mary highlighting the key parts from the article:
Rights Respecting Schools: Dog Fouling Campaign!
As a whole school, we are going to fight against the smelly dog poo that gets left on the streets of New Cumnock. As the week progresses, I will release a video explaining in more detail as to what the campaign is. However, the first thing we need to do is to choose a poster that is going to go alongside the campaign. Below are a couple of super examples that other communities have used.. but we want to have a bit of New Cumnock to ours so be as creative as you possibly can! Your teacher will send your poster to Mr McClure and he will then put the best posters to a vote to decide which one we will use! Good luck!
This week at NCPS, we are looking at two very important rights. The breakdown of both of the rights are above in the pictures. Our focus this week is going to be Safer Internet Day. I have attached a PowerPoint below that provides a couple of super activities that I would love for you to complete.
If you complete any of the activities please send pictures to: john.mcclure@eastayrshire.org.uk
