Dreghorn Primary Parent Council Funding Inclusive Whole School Trip
No comments Irvine
<p> </p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Dreghorn Primary Parent Council(PC) would like to provide a trip for the whole school, this would be the first trip for years. Pupils and Parents have expressed their desire for a whole school trip but have alluded to the challenge posed by the current cost of living crisis. Not having a whole school trip is adversely effecting children of all ages and we want to ensure that finance is not a barrier. The PC are applying for funding to cover the cost for every child. We all have great memories of trips, we would like that for this generation. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Outdoor learning is so important to make connections between school and the real world – bringing topics alive. The extensive benefits for health and wellbeing are also well documented.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">One pupil said " I enjoy trips, they are very educational because you are in a new place, learning new things that you would never be able to see in school. Another pupil told us " You get out all day to see things and its fun. I like a trip because you get to be with all your friends from the other classes and it can be good learning.</span></span></p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

Extended Pathway and disabled ramp access
No comments Irvine
<p>With the success of our school's program and Easter and Sumner camps we now have more kids and families using our facilities. To improve the area and make it easier for disabled and small kids in prams we are looking to extend a pathway into the main car park area and make ramp access into our dressing rooms and toilet area.</p>
5th Dreghorn Rangers
No comments Irvine
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We are a girl-guiding unit for girls aged 14-18. The group currently consists of nine girls who have been dedicated to girl guiding since they were 5 years old. The girls follow a programme of skill-builder badges in themes such as camping, communication and first aid. Our programme of interest badges, skill builders and awards support these young women to try new things, travel the world and develop skills across our six themes. Many of the girls are young leaders for local rainbows and brownies and are working on building their CVs for their future careers. Rangers is about taking the lead and finding new challenges. It can be seen as a rare sight to see young people engaged in helping their community and we wish to continue seeking opportunities to help the girls grow. This group of girls have excelled as role models to the young girl-guiding community from helping with trips to inspiring them to be themselves. The girls have been allowed to advocate for the issues in the world around them and educate future generations. This is only possible with funding to develop these ambitious and driven young women. </span></span></p>
5th Dreghorn Brownies and Guides
No comments Irvine
<p>5th Dreghorn Brownies and Guides Group</p> <p>We as a unit meet every Thursday night in the community centre in Dreghorn. We try to have as much fun as we can while the girls learn life skills and gain badges. Between the Brownies and the Guides we have 48 girls as well as 6 leaders. We would like to take the whole group on a team building day to Craufurdland Castle in Kilmarnock to carry out a team building day. Activities would range from Archery to tree top trials. With this funding it would ensure that all our girls could attend the day out regardless of social circumstances. Being together as a whole group is important to us and this is our chance to do that.</p>
