Tartan Trek Success!

February 1, 2024 Mrs McNulty Leave a comment

A huge thank you to everyone who made our Tartan Trek last week such a success! To everyone who sponsored our children, to the New Cumnock Development Trust for the yummy snacks and drinks provided to us on our return, to our Parent Helpers and Staff for accompanying our children on our walk and to our wonderful children for being such good sports and coming along and singing all the way round the Lagoons and back to school, despite the poor weather that day. A personal favourite was the rendition of ‘Happy Birthday Dear Rabbie!!!’ from Primary 1 as we walked past the Robert Burns Statue.

We are delighted to announce that our Sponsored Walk raised a staggering total of £3871.30!!!

WELL DONE EVERYONE AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!

Dinnae Forget Your Caddy!

February 1, 2024 Mrs McNulty Leave a comment

Parents/carers,

Yesterday each family received a letter invite them to name and register their food caddy as part of East Ayrshire’s ‘Dinnae Forget Your Caddy’ competition.

Children are reminded to return the tear off slip at the bottom by tomorrow to be entered in the prize draw, to have their name given to our school caddy. There is £20 East Ayrshire voucher up for grabs!

Each week, children will be working hard to share the message of the importance of recycling our food waste at home and each time they let us know that they have put their kerbside caddy out for collection at home, they will receive a token which will be added to a prize draw which will take place each month to won a £10 East Ayrshire voucher!

Let’s work together to increase our Community Caddy Count!

Tartan Trek 25/1/24

January 24, 2024 Mrs McNulty Leave a comment

A wee reminder that we will be going out on our sponsored Tartan Trek tomorrow (Thursday).

All sponsor money will be collected in the morning by class teachers, alternatively, if you would prefer, you can hand in your child’s sponsor money at the main office, if you would rather drop it off yourself, but this must be done in the morning to allow us to get it counted and banked.

Don’t forget to wear your tartan tomorrow but to also dress appropriately for the outdoors as we intend to head out, even if it is raining. (That way we will have really earned our sponsor money!)

When we arrive back at school, each child will be given a drink and a snack which has been kindly donated from the New Cumnock Development Trust. Thank you again to Tammy and the team for this kind gesture!

We will be heading out at 1.30pm so if you are out in your car or we walk past your window, give us a wave or a toot!

Back in December, we reported to our families, sharing the wonderful work Primary 7 did with BBC Scotland on a Burns Project for the BBC L.A.B website where they recited, directed, filmed and created animation for the Burns poem, ‘To a Mouse’.
