Achievement Assembly

We look forward to hosting our next achievement assembly on Friday 2nd October.

If your child has celebrated any achievements out-with school e.g. earned a swimming badge, learned to ride their bike, gained badges at a hobby etc., then they are able to bring in such items to share at this special assembly. Alternatively if you would like us to share any photographs or videos of your child’s achievements, please upload these via the Parent Contribution tab on your child’s learning journals.

We look forward to celebrating the success of our pupils!

Learning Journals

Please find attached a copy of the presentation from last week’s Sharing the Learning afternoon on the launch of Learning Journals. We have now activated the Parents Contributions, which will allow you to upload any wider achievements for your child/children, which we can then share at our Achievement Assemblies.

If you are experiencing any issues with your child/children’s learning journals, please contact the school.

PE Days

Please see the days for PE for each class below:

P1/2: Tuesday and Thursday

P3/4: Monday and Wednesday

P5/6: Wednesday and Friday

P6/7: Tuesday and Thursday

A reminder that, in line with East Ayrshire’s guidelines, jewellery is not permitted during PE. Earrings should preferably be removed. If this is not possible, they can be taped over, or pupils can bring tape to cover them. Removal or taping of earrings is the responsibility of parents/carers or the child if they are able to do this themselves.

It would also be helpful if long hair is tied back and loose clothing is secured for PE.

Pupils can either come dressed for PE, wear their kit underneath their clothing or leave their PE kit in school to change into when needed.

Medical Forms

** Important Information **

Please note that medical forms have been issued today. Forms, along with all medication, should be returned to the school office as soon as possible. If your child requires medication to be taken in school and did not receive a medical form, please contact the school office.

Thank you.
