Family Reading Sessions at Dalry

Leave a reply

On the 22nd November we were lucky to have some very special visitors to P1 – P3 classrooms – our families!!

They came to enjoy exploring some activities which were linked to the lovely books and games the children were gifted through the Bookbug and Read, Write, Count initiatives by Scottish Book Trust and the Scottish Government.

These provide resources to inspire a lifelong love of reading, writing and counting and help to strengthen links between school and home learning.

Here are some links to support parents:

Thank you so much to the families who were able to join us and for the lots of very positive feedback that you left.

Diwali Dalry Style

Leave a reply

Dalry Primary’s early level children and families celebrated Diwali with a wonderful morning full of colourful costumes, dazzling dancing and marvellous music.

Children and parents put on a sensational showcase of talent for the nursery and Primary 1 children, their families, friends and staff.  Afterwards the children enjoyed a variety of Indian foods in their classroom.  Thank you to all the terrifically talented dancers and performers, the parents and staff who helped to rehearse the children and prepare the food, and of course a special thank you to the super school staff Mrs Roy and Mrs Dugal who made such a great effort behind the scenes to coordinate the event.

शुभ दीवाली
ਖੁਸ਼ ਦਿਵਾਲੀ
દિવાળી ખુશ
இனிய தீபாவளி வாழ்த்துக்கள்

HAPPY DIWALI TO EVERYONE!
