Preparing for Homecoming 2018

Today, members of Primary 7 went down to the town hall to help prepare for the Homecoming event on Friday. They helped to tie the poppies that have been knitted and crocheted by people from all over Ayrshire onto banners. Our P6 and P7 classes will be attending the parade on Friday.

Parent Mindset Workshop

Last week we held our first workshops for this session with the theme of ‘Thinking with a Growth Mindset’. Parents took part in a range of group activities along with information and question and answer sessions. Further information can be found on the school website. A parental information leaflet is available by clicking here.

Comments from parents included:

  • Great session highlighting ways we can improve but also things we are doing, unsure it was right but I was actually helping a growth mindset
  • Workshop really helpful in helping me develop strategies to support my child
  • Very informative and extremely relevant to some of the challenges I face when trying to support my child not only in  school homework but other activities and relationships too
  • Good mixture of information and activity. Enjoyed session. Think it’s great that learning is underpinned by growth mindset. Thanks.

Macmillan Coffee Morning

Thank-you to all the families that came along to our coffee morning last week. We raised a fantastic £500. We would like to thank you for all the donations of cakes, biscuits and pastries. The event would not have gone ahead without the support of the staff and parent helpers. We really appreciate you.
