New Cumnock Coronation Weekend Fun May 2023
We were excited to be part of the New Cumnock Coronation Celebration weekend!
Primary 7 pupils Lily P and Noah R were crowned as King and Queen and then paraded around the town on the Friday evening, followed by a Disco performed by our very own DJ Wee Parky.
The Saturday family fun day was a huge success and it was great to see so many people come out to enjoy the community celebrations. Our school choir entertained the crowd by performing some songs they have been rehearsing in preparation for the event.
A huge thank you goes to the Coronation Committee for their kind donation of commemorative medals for every child in the school, what a lovely gesture to mark such a memorable occasion.

A huge thank you to the Parent Council who funded snacks for all the children to enjoy at the picnic and to Pathhead Bakery for their very kind donation of Coronation cupcakes for all the children to enjoy!
