Our partners from Vibrant Communities, Adam and Dugie, who both also run our Parental Empowerment Programme every week, have managed to organise training opportunities for parents at New Cumnock Primary School. The training is free and will be delivered by Scottish Fire and Rescue. Due to limited spaces available if you would like to participate in this extremely worthwhile training please complete the attached form before 28th April. Thank You.
The Eco Rich Task Group have been planning and organising a Planet Picnic for Thursday 30th March 2023. This will be a celebration of ways in which we can look after the environment. This picnic will run from 11-11:30am and the children are being asked to bring in snacks and drinks that are packaged in a sustainable way. It would also be good if the food brought could be locally produced as food miles are a big consideration when thinking about protecting our planet. The Rich Task Group have created activities to be done during the event and there will be a competition to design and win a ‘customised’ reusable bottle! As it is a picnic it would be great if the children could bring a picnic blanket.
Today we celebrated our pupils Wider Achievements at our FAB Friday Get Together. We loved learning more about each others hobbies and successes out of school. From football and horse riding to gymnastics and dancing, we have a lot of talented children at New Cumnock Primary!
Well done to all who shared their achievements with their peers!
A huge thank you to NCDT and our Parent Council who successfully applied for a Community Fund which was used to buy our school football team their new football strips. Don’t they look wonderful?! 🤩
Recently, cases of head lice have been identified across the school and we wanted to make sure you were kept informed.
Whilst lice are nothing more than a nuisance, it is important that children are checked on a weekly basis so that any head lice can be dealt with quickly and before they are allowed to spread.
We suggest that you check your child’s head regularly.
Here is some simple advice you may wish to follow to keep head lice at bay.
Check your child’s hair once a week.
Use a proper detection comb. The comb is usually white in colour so that lice can be easily identified.
If you find live lice, visit the Pharmacy where you will be able to access the treatment under the minor ailments scheme and remember to check the whole family.
We are extremely grateful to the New Cumnock Development Trust for their funding to enable us to provide our Breakfast Club free of charge to our families.
We want to know how its supporting our children and any changes they may wish to see.
If your child attends Breakfast Club, please encourage them to complete this short questionnaire. Their views are extremely important to us.
Please note that coming to the disco, children should enter via the Community Entrance, and at the end of the disco, they should be collected from the gym hall door at the rear of the car park.
The Form link below should be used for pupils to submit their favourite song to be added to the Disco playlist.
It’s that time of year again when we start to plan for our new session! As usual your views and ideas are very important to us. Please take some time to consider the questions on the FORM attached. There is also space at the bottom of the FORM to make general suggestions regarding how we can make our school the best it can be.
