Thank you to @Nightbeforechr1 for supporting us to help families with lovely gifts again this year. Also a huge thank you to Santa's helpers who helped deliver the red bags of Joy! @Kilwinning_Acad

Session 2 of our habits and lifestyle program at MissionFit gym. Another week of our pupils being outside their comfort zones and working hard. This week we also looked at the impact of peer influences and asked pupils to think about how does their story end? @Kilwinning_Acad

The LGBTea Time event ran by our pupils was a huge success. The pupils pushed themselves outside their comfort zones to create a fabulous spread and interactive quiz for invited staff. A huge thanks to all who made it such a wonderful afternoon @Kilwinning_Acad

Last week, our pupils explored what it means to see the world through the eyes of someone with dyslexia. From videos and discussions to reflection tasks, they shared some amazing insights on these post-it notes 💭💙 @Kilwinning_Acad @KilwAcadSupport @DyslexiaScotlan

Some of our senior pupils, who will be leading the development of the new school website, having planning discussions with Mr Swan. @KAICTBusiness @Kilwinning_Acad

Funding has been provided for one school year; therefore, this temporary provision will run from Wednesday 20 August 2025 until Tuesday 30 June 2026. S1, S2 and S3 pupils will receive a free school meal if their parent/caregiver is currently in receipt of the Scottish Child Payment.
