Dear parent / carer
As we are now well into the final term of the year, I thought I would send an update with some of the key dates for P7s over the next few months.
Key Dates
Wednesday 24th May- P7 Information Evening at RBA 6.30pm
Tuesday 13th and Wednesday 14th June- P7 Induction days at RBA
Throughout this term we will continue to liaise with our colleagues in the primary schools to make plans for our new S1s. In addition to this, our staff have also prepared a series of lessons designed to introduce our S1 curriculum to your child. These lessons will be issued to each primary school in the hope that it will give P7s a sample of what to expect during their first few weeks in S1.
I am now at a stage where I will begin to create our new S1 classes for next year. To allow me to do this I would appreciate it if you could return the medical / sibling information form that has been issued to you by your child’s primary school.
I would strongly urge you to attend our P7 Information Evening at The Robert Burns Academy on Wednesday 24th May. This evening will provide you with an opportunity to meet some of our key staff and see inside the school. In preparation for this evening, I would also like to gather your views on what you most like to hear about on the evening. The Glow form below will take only a few minutes to complete and will provide me with the feedback required to tailor this evening to your needs. Please complete this by Wednesday 10th May if it is your intention to attend the information evening.
Once I have collated the response to this form, I will issue a letter with further details regarding the arrangements for the Information Evening.

Littler Bugs!

All the children from Ochiltree Primary School did their part for World Earth Day by taking part in a whole community Litter Pick. They were joined by members of CAP and Ochiltree Hub.
A HUGH thanks to the volunteers from the community for helping our young people to take part in this community venture.
Also, thank you to Ochiltree Hub for providing children and volunteers with drinks and yummy shortbread. The children were delighted to make Ochiltree litter free!

“Strings” Lesson
Primary 5/6/7 had an exciting and unusual “strings” lesson today – find the rhythm imposter, mystery word and instrument imposters all using a computer and whiteboard.
Then a “crayons vs markers” duet rhythm pattern using drumsticks!
They loved it 100%!
The Heritage Centre – Cumnock
Primary 5/6/7 went to “The Heritage Centre” which is based in Cumnock for a visit on Tuesday.
They all had a wonderful time listening to the volunteers explaining what certain items were. The “old” phones and school belt were a “hit”! Many of the pupils were fascinated by the steamroller and the roadman’s caravan.
Leaflets with all the information about the Centre were given to each child after the visit – phone up and arrange a visit!
August 2023 Intake – Visit Invite

Beautiful, Beloved Birds!
P6/7 stitched a felt bird for a special person in their life. They had to learn how to cut a pattern out, pin it on to the felt and then cut it out very carefully.
Buttons were sewn on to the wings and running or back stitches were used to sew the sides together – life skills for the future!
Don’t you think they look bold, bright and brilliant birds?
