P7 Leaver Hoodies

Our Primary 7’s were delighted today to receive their leavers hoodies. On behalf of all the pupils, staff and wider community, we would like to say a huge thank you to our Parent Council for gifting our Primary 7’s their hoodies this year. What a fantastic memory which I am sure they will keep throughout their lives.

 

 

 

Term 4 PE Days

As we continue to deliver PE outdoors, please see below the class PE days where pupils can attend school wearing a suitable PE kit (Trackies, Joggers, Leggings, Trainers etc…). Pupils are encouraged to continue to wear New Cumnock T-shirts, Jumpers and/or Hoodies on these days.

Monday: Primary 1, Primary 4 and Primary 6/7

Tuesday: Primary 2/3, Primary 3 and Primary 7

Wednesday Primary 1/2 and Primary 5/6

Thursday: Primary 4/5

In the case of poor weather where outdoor lessons cannot go ahead, class teachers will plan additional PE opportunities throughout the week on days with appropriate weather. These lessons will be adapted to allow pupils to take part wearing school uniform and appropriate footwear (Flat shoes).

Term 4!

I can’t quite believe that tomorrow will be the first day of our final term for this session!  We are really excited to welcome all of our children back for our Summer Term.  Hopefully, we will be able to participate in many of the fun activities (or a version of them) that we usually celebrate in our last term.

I’m sure you all know them inside out by now but I just want to remind you of the health and safety precautions we must continue to abide by to ensure the safety of all our children and our whole school community.  It would be helpful if you could discuss these with your child/children prior to returning to school tomorrow:

 

Thank you again for your continued support and cooperation during these difficult times.  I look forward to working with you throughout the rest of the session!

Kind regards,

J McMurdo (Head Teacher)

Happy Easter Holidays!

This term has been very a different one after a long period of Remote Learning, and we again want to thank our families for being our partners in learning during this time. We are so happy to have all our children back in school and to round off the term we are sending each of them home with an Easter egg from the school.

We have also kindly received gift bags for each child from New Cumnock Parish Church and these will be distributed after the holiday to allow them to be quarantined before our young people bring them home.

We wish you all a safe and relaxing Easter holiday.
Mrs McMurdo and Team New Cumnock heart
