It was lovely to have a visit from Mrs Bell from The Robert Burns Academy today! She visited P5, P6 and P7 giving the children an introduction to woodwind instruments as well as a solo performance. From the 12th November she hopes to begin tuition in school.
Should your child be interested in starting lessons please complete the link below:
Make sure you click the “proceed” button to be taken to the website.
Parents will then need to ‘sign in’ to/create an East Ayrshire account to fill the form in and make sure “woodwind” is selected as the instrument of choice. Anyone who doesn’t get an offer of an instrument straight away will be placed on a waiting list until another instrument/space becomes available.
Due to the success of the community club in Term 1, we will be opening our playground to allow a new multi sport club for our P4-7 pupils to take place on Wednesdays 4pm-5pm (Starting 27th October). This will be organised and run by Active Schools.

The Cabinet Secretary for Education and Skills announced on 22 June 2021 the intention to replace the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) and remove the function of school inspection from Education Scotland. Professor Ken Muir, University of the West of Scotland, has been appointed to act as an independent advisor to the Scottish Government to consider and advise on the implementation of these changes and consider all functions currently delivered by both the SQA and Education Scotland.
Professor Muir wants to hear the views and ideas from all those with an interest in Scottish Education. This webinar is an opportunity specifically for parents and carers with children and young people in education, to hear first-hand about this reform work, to express views and ideas about the kind of education system we want to see in Scotland for the future and to ask questions of Professor Muir.
When
The virtual webinar session will take place on Wednesday 27th October from 6 30 p.m. till 8 p.m.
