Welcome back!
We have had a very successful return to school this week, it had been so lovely to see all our pupils again and to welcome our new P1s, who have settled in extremely well.
Some important information we want to remind you of…
School Uniform
We expect all of our pupils to be wearing school uniform to ensure they are easily identifiable and represent Team New Cumnock. If you require support with this, we have a well stocked pre-loved uniform stock (including polo shirts, jumpers, hoodies, trousers, skirts, pinafores, jackets and shoes) in our main reception. Please come to the office and have a look and take what you need.
Drop Off
A message was sent out yesterday regarding drop off in the morning. To prevent our playground from being congested, we ask that parents drop children off at the school gates, which are manned from 8.45am by a member of staff. P1 parents/carers who wish to walk their children to their line, are asked to wait at the gate until 9am to do so, this will allow the class teachers to bring the other classes into the building first and avoid overcrowding.
Free Toast and Fruit
We are looking into sources of funding to enable us to run our Breakfast Club again, but meanwhile, please do not forget that as per East Ayrshire policy, we provide our children with free toast from 8.45am. Children can make their way into the dinner hall in the morning to get this. As well as this, we have free fruit available at morning interval.
PE Days
Your children will receive 2 hours of PE each week. In order to participate fully, they are required to bring a change of footwear (plimsoles/trainers) and a change of bottoms (joggers/shorts/leggings) to wear for these lessons.
These can be put in a gym bag to remain on their peg in school or kept in their school bags.
PE days are as follows:
P1 (Mrs Clarke) MONDAY & FRIDAY
P2 (Mrs Elliott) TUESDAY & WEDNESDAY
P2/3 (Mrs Johnstone) TUESDAY & WEDNESDAY
P3/4 (Mrs Petrie) WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY
P4/5 (Mrs Armour) TUESDAY & FRIDAY
P5 (Miss McQueen) WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY
P5/6 (Miss White) TUESDAY & THURSDAY
P6 (Mrs Ramsay/Miss Nicholl) MONDAY & FRIDAY
P7 (Mrs Frew) MONDAY & THURSDAY
Names on items
Please ensure that you have your child’s name on all their personal items, including clothing, packed lunches and water bottles. We have already collated a number of lost and found items this week, that we have unable to relocate as they have no names!
Data Forms
Prior to the holidays, children were sent home with data check forms for completion. This is to ensure all the information we have on record is correct. Included in this is photographic consent forms, which we require before we can upload images on our school blog and Learning Journals. We are really keen to start sharing our learning and successes with you so if you have not yet returned these, can we ask that you do so as soon as possible.
Happy Holidays!
Happy holidays to all our families!
Thank you for all your support for another hugely successful year for Team New Cumnock!
We hope you have a lovely, safe and relaxing summer and we look forward to welcoming our pupils back on Wednesday 20th August!
