Free bus travel is available to all pupils aged 5 and over from 31 January 2022 and can be accessed via the National Entitlement Card.  We have been working with Customer Services as parents have a choice of applying for a new card via the school system or they can go directly to https://getyournec.scot/nec/.  If they go through the NEC website,  parents will require to validate both their identity and that of their child.

The other option is for them to apply for a National Entitlement Card  / Kidz Kard via the school.  This option assumes that both the parent’s and child’s identity has been validated and simplifies the process the parents. Please go to:

NEC Application Form 1 for pupils aged 5 to 10 years old

NEC Application Form 2 for pupils aged 11 to 15 years old

Due to the current COVID mitigations we will only accept application forms from pupils who require to undertake essential travel at this time, but we will leave the forms open on school website/app to allow parents to apply at a time that is suitable for them.  All forms will be processed when the mitigations are eased and we are able to travel freely.

With the introduction of Universal Free Schools meals for Primary 1 to Primary 5, if your child(ren) suffer from any food allergies or intolerances you must notify the school immediately and this information will be passed to the Catering Manager.

Free school meals are now on the menu for all P5 pupils throughout East Ayrshire, thanks to the Scottish Government’s universal free school meals initiative.

Like all children from P1 to P4, P5s will also now be offered a delicious and nutritious two-course meal. The menus, which run on a three weekly cycle, include organic, local and seasonal produce and there are meat-free days each week.

Menu choices

Each year,  our Catering Services consult with parents, children and young people and holds menu development sessions – this makes sure that the menus are tailored to the needs and requirements of our children and young people.

All main meals are served with two fresh seasonal vegetables and a piece of fruit and children can choose meals like Cajun chicken pasta, premium pork sausages with creamy mashed potato, ¼ pounder veg burger with potato wedges or macaroni. And there is always homemade soup on offer.

Food Intolerance

If your child has food intolerances, your school’s Catering Manager will be happy to speak to you about all the choices that are available.
