The parent council have also asked us to ask if any parents can help by becoming an admin on the groups for some of these languages.
If the Polish, Arabic and Urdu parent could let the Parent Council know that they can do this admin role for the WhatsApp via the Parent Council Facebook messenger it would be much appreciated.

The Parent Council have worked to set up whatsapp groups in different languages to support us through the school closure period. Parents will be able to access support from one another using the groups to help with the understanding of pupil home learning and to support one another.
The groups are listed below.
Hello, please can you share with Parents these links to what’s app groups:
Good morning.
We have heard about the announcement overnight of the continued schooling provision for key workers.
You will appreciate that this decision was taken at 2am and so the details have yet to be worked out by Edinburgh Council.
Please bear with us this morning while we wait to tell you how the provision will work for our Dalry families. Check back to parentpay, the website, local media and the Edinburgh Council website for information when we have it.
In the meantime we are planning to make this morning a fun and special one for all children who are in to help ease the transition.
P3a had a drama workshop recently.
Afterwards they made little puppets of the characters and recreated the stories. The children used their ideas from their drama workshop with Mrs Gallagher to help them to think of all the noises that kept daddy bear awake in the story Peace at Last.
Well done to all our amazing P5, 6 and & 7 perormers who joined Scottish Opera in a performance of Terracotta Warriors last week.
We were so proud of their hard work and its results.
Here are photos from the rehearsal and performance.
Remember this This Thursday is our World Book Day Pyjamas optional day in celebration of bedtime stories.
‘Our wonderful nursery teacher, Mrs O’Connor, had a fabulous group of mothers, babies and toddlers at our first session of Bookbugs where they enjoyed rhymes, stories and singing’
Here are some pictures of P3a’s Australia topic.
The children made clay creatures form the Great Barrier Reef, clown fish, dolphins, blue ringed octopus and surgeonfish. They also created sunset silhouette pictures with Australian wildlife.
We have an invitation to pass on to you from TV production company Keshet TV.
SHOW ME THE HONEY! Application Form 
Show Me The Honey!
The wonderful world of beekeeping is being explored like never before in a fantastic new CBBC series for kids and their families. Four families from across the UK will become first-time beekeepers, exploring the incredible world of bees and finding out about their wider local environment, alongside trying to produce some delicious honey! The beekeeping action will be focused on the children taking part but they’ll be supported by their parents or guardians, and any siblings will get to appear too if they wish. Each family will receive their own bees, a hive and all the relevant safety equipment. They’ll also receive training from experts on how to look after the bees. Everyone’s a winner in this eco-friendly, warm competition but there will be a winning family who will be crowned the honey-making champions at the end of the series.
We are currently casting for families to take part across the whole of the UK. Families can be of any shape or size but must include at least one child aged 9-14 and have ample space to keep the bees.
We are working with bee experts to make sure the bees welfare is not compromised during the process of the competition and that they thrive in their new homes.
I was wondering whether there may be any pupils at your school that would like to apply to take part in the competition. They can apply at:
