This year at New Cumnock, unfortunately we will still not be able to complete our usual sports day over at the Glens Park. However, we have followed Covid protocols and came up with a super alternative! We are going to take part in sports day at school within our class bubbles. All of the information is explained in the video below as well as the document attached!
Good luck to all and remember to wear your house colours on the day you are completing the activities if you can!

NCPS have took the first step in making New Cumnock a poo-free zone! This morning P6-7 went a walk around the village and set up some of the poo bag dispensers that we made alongside an informative poster as to why you should lift your dog poo!
A big thanks to NCDT as they provided us with the poo bags! Please feel free to use any of the bags and let us know if they run out and we will fill them back up!

A huge thank you again to our families who have agreed to be part of our pilot of Learning Journals.
This fortnight, our staff are going to focus on sharing ‘STORIES‘ with you about your child whilst in school. It would be really useful and beneficial to both your child and their class teacher if you are able to login and respond to these posts with either a ‘thumbs up’ or a comment. The children love to know their work is being shared with you.
In addition to this, we are encouraging our parents/carers to add ‘PARENTAL CONTRIBUTIONS‘. This is where you can share any learning or achievements from home, with the class teacher. This information is invaluable and gives us a further insight into our young people.
If you have forgotten your log in information and need this to be reset, please email Mrs McNulty at danielle.mcnulty@eastayrshire.org.uk and she will assist you.
We are also able to assign more than 1 parent to your child’s account so if you wish to do so, please complete the contact form below.
