Kilwinning Academy Parent Council
2023-09-10 • No comments • • Kilwinning
Kilwinning Academy Parent Council is a very active and supportive group of parents who work together to ensure young poeple are able to access the range of educational and wellbeing opportunities provided by the school or other services.
As a group we meet once a month with the Head Teacher to find ways to address any issues raised by parents but also to promote the fantastic progress and achievements many young people have made.
Part of our focus is on finding ways to support learning and teaching which will support raising attainment and an outcome, but more recenlty we are very aware of the growing concerns parents have over the Mental Health and Wellbeing of pupils at the school and in the community. As a group we have apporached the school to find ways to support groups of young people who may be struggling with their mental health and wellbeing resulting in those been identified as struggling to reach their potential. One distinct group we wish to help on this occasion is the growing concerns over young male pupils who are struggling to engage in their learning and are unwilling to accept the usual supports offered by the school.
As parents we agree that one of the best ways to engage young males is through providing high quality sport and fitness activities delivered by specialists out with the school environment. So as a group we have identified a Kilwinning company, "BetterU Fitness" who have a number of highly trained professionals with a range of experience of supporting young people. Our application for funding would cover the costs and activities provided by the BetterU Fitness staff. The plan would be for a targeted group of young male pupils, identified by the school, to participate in an eight-week programme delivered during school time at the BetterU Fitness unit at the Nethermains Industrustlal Estate.
Discussion with the school has resulted a shared understanding that the intended benefits of this project to those involved would out way any time lost to lessons due to concerns over their engagement in school. Following this discussion, the school is very keen to monitor the scucess of this project and will commit to funding another group if this project provides to be a success.
BetterU Provision provide for the £997.88 bid
- Fully qualified coach for session delivery 2 sessions per week for up to 8 weeks
- Facilties and all required equipment
- Planning and delivery of sessions in line with age and stage of development
- Focus on supporting participant's fitness and mental health and wellbeing
- Personal clothing item for each participant
Outcome
It is hoped that by the end of the 8-week programme the participants will be fitter, be more willing to discuss the support required to reach their full potential at school and feel more positive about their own mental health and wellbeing.

Youth Legacy Action Team
2023-09-14 • No comments • • Irvine
We would like to have a free bite to eat during each group as this is something that we are often asking for. The Legacy Centre currently runs a group on a sunday “Food chat and chill” which is one of our most popular groups and provides young people with a free hot meal. This has shown us that other young people as well as ourselves benefit from a free meal and snack while we are at the youth group during the week. We would like there to be a choice of tuckshop sweets for young people to choose one per night and a range of juice for young people to access. We would also like to stock a range of noodles for young people to have when they are visiting.
£250 - tuckshop snacks
£250 - juice
£500 - noodles

We are looking for funding to purchase equipment to run more Multisports clubs across the Kilwinning area, to increase participation and activity levels in the community. We are also looking to book the local Sports club, to invite all of the community primary schools to multiple different events such as a football, netball and athletics, allowing the local schools to meet up and aid in the integration of the Kilwinning community. Finally, we are looking to purchase a small PA/Speaker system, in order to run larger events and allow all of the participants in the community to hear us.
Approximate breakdown of cost is as follows:
Let Costs - £450
Multisport Equipment - £350
PA System - £200.
Total - £1000

We would like to develop the area for forest school, allowing the family learning programme to continue, with den making, outdoor cooking and growing. The following items would be required: Outdoor tarpaulens £100, den-making kit £120, discovery table £250, explorer kits £150, outdoor cooking equipment £180, outdoor storage £200. This would allow the pupils to utilise these facilities in their learning and in their playtime. In addition, with coordination from the eco group and family learning, they will be able to continue with learning for sustainability and allowing parents/ carers and siblings to access these lessons as after school workshops. These have been very successful in the past at bringing our school community together, but requires some additional funding for the resources. Unfortunately, some our outdoor features were vandalised recently and now need to be secured in outdoor storage.

- The girls are beginning to represent their community at wider events and we would like a unit flag which costs £91 for these events.
- The current hall cost is £88 a year
- End-of-year badge cost per girl £20
- Craft budget £150
We would also like to seek funding to organise a camping trip for the girls. Due to the small nature of the group, we have not had the funding opportunity to arrange an end-of-year trip. The cost per girl would be £50, this would be a total cost of £600 to stay at the Blair activity centre with 3 leaders. This is the minimum cost as we would need funding for food £150, resources £200 and badges £30.
We are asking for £1,000 to help cover the costs of our budget for our small local unit to the end of the year.

Our club supports people of all ages, providing exercise, descipline, respect and self belonging. We have incorporated session to support children with additional needs, removing those barriers and allowing them to take part and belong to a club. Exercise can improve your sense of control, coping ability and self-esteem. People who exercise regularly often report how good achieving a goal makes them feel.
Extended Pathway and disabled ramp access
2023-09-13 • No comments • • Irvine
Our car park is hardcore and is regularly flooding and is very uneven. Families use this car park to attend cricket matches and training nights. To make it easier for access to our grounds we are looking to extend a current pathway that starts at our building deep into the existing car park area in order for families to reverse park cars and remove wheelchairs , prams from car boots etc and have an easier walk and far safer entrance into our area. It will also means everyone arrives dry and clean which makes it easier as well. We will also be building a ramp access into our changing rooms and toilet area for families and wheelchair users to access without having to go across to our main sports club building. The cost will be £1850 for the ramp, pathway construction including materials and labour. We have £1000 raised towards this project and would like to apply for £850.
