Summer Fayre Success

A massive well done to our hard working Parent Council on another fantastic event for New Cumnock Primary School. The rain certainly didn’t dampen any of our New Cumnock spirit!

It was great to see so many parents, children, staff and members of our community supporting the school.

Thank you everyone!

A huge well done to Lottie J who won the Guess the Bears Name competition, she is now the proud owner of ‘Bubbles’!

We have been invited to take part in a competition to name one of their Wind Farms they have been approved for. The company wish to mark the heritage and significance of the sites to our local community and its mining history. Try to keep this in mind when coming up with your chosen name.

Sheets will be sent home before the end of the week but must be returned by Monday 9th June to be entered into the competition.
