Since the summer break, New Cumnock Primary School has been participating in the Trailblazers trial – a joint Ayrshire project looking to improve road safety and increase active and sustainable travel to school. To understand the impact of the trial, a short survey has been prepared to understand views on the trial and any changes in travel behaviours and attitudes. I would be most grateful if you could take a few minutes to share your thoughts via the short survey provided at the following link:
Today we enjoyed our school Christmas dinner! It was delicious and is always a highlight having the staff serve the pupils. A huge thank you to our catering staff for the wonderful meal!
The P7s were so kind to return the favour by serving the staff their dinner afterwards!
Yesterday we enjoyed a whole school trip to the Palace Theatre to watch this years Pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk.
We had a great afternoon! Lyle and Lucas did us proud with their star performances on the big stage!
A huge thank you must go to our wonderful Parent Council for their kind donation of £2000 to go towards our transport costs. This helped us to dramatically reduce the cost we asked from our families to help fund this brilliant day out.
A huge thank you to everyone who attended and supported our Christmas Fayre on Saturday!
It was a huge success, raising over £1300 for Parent Council funds, which help our school immensely throughout the year!
Thank you to our wonderful Parent Council for all their hard work in putting together such a large scale event! Another huge thank you goes to Christina Mackie at the Gospel Hall who kindly donated all their takings from their stall at the Fayre, to our funds. This was extremely kind of you, thank you very much!

Members of our parent body have raised concerns about the content of Relationships Sexual Health and Parenting (RSHP) lessons and have already highlighted their intention to extract their children from this area of the curriculum.
As part of our School Improvement Plan, Mrs McNulty is therefore looking to create a Parent Group to develop knowledge and understanding, as well as confidence, within our parents and carers, to ensure effective delivery and outcomes of RSHP here at New Cumnock Primary.
Is this something you feel strongly about or feel you have little knowledge of? Do you have time to join us to share your thoughts or questions?
Please complete the Form below and Mrs McNulty will contact all parents who have registered, to arrange a meeting in the near future.
