Golden Tickets to Dynamic Earth
Dalry Primary is happy to announce that we have been selected as a Dynamic Earth Golden ticket school for this academic year.
This means the school and nursery will be able to take free admission on trips for all of our pupils as well as subsidised travel and free learning workshops.
We are extremely excited by this amazing opportunity.
Mrs Honeyman’s Tea Party
One of Mrs Honeyman’s favourite parts of her job is having a tea party every Friday with the chosen ‘Pupil of the Week’ from each class. This week the children were chosen by their teachers and peers for good listening, deep thinking, confident speaking, being a good friend to newly arrived pupils, improvements in reading, being responsible and overcoming their fear of water at the swimming pool.
Doors Open Day
The weekend of September 28th is Doors Open Day across Edinburgh.
Doors open is an amazing event sponsored by the Cockburn Association where buildings normally closed to the public throw open their doors. Many also put on family friendly activities.
A full guide is available on this link.
This year highlights Dalry families may be interested in include:
Learn about University STEM learning at Edinburgh University Kings buildings. (Flyer linked here.) (best for P6 and P7).
Heriot Watt also have an amazing range of STEM activities on this link.
Find out more about bodies at a museum that is normally only for medical students at the Anatomical Museum (info here)
Lots of our Forest School pupils will have wondered what’s inside the spooky tower on the hill. Now you can go in to find out. Click here for more info
Have a look behind the scenes, literally, at The King’s Theatre. Click here.
One of the best family activities to be had in Edinburgh – Get insdide the bus garage and take a ride through the bus wash, sit in the drivers seats and ride vintage buses from Haymarket for just a normal bus fare. This year they are going big for the centenary of Lothian Buses. On Sunday there will even be a bus parade. Details here.

Tollcross P6 pupils to Join us at Dalry Next Week
Dear Parents and Carers
You will be aware of the fire incident in Fountainbridge earlier this week which happened immediately adjacent to Tollcross Primary School.
While the school wasn’t damaged in any way a safety zone has been created which has decreased the number of classroom spaces at Tollcross.
I have agreed to release space at our school to accommodate Primary 6 pupils and their staff. This will have a limited impact on our school but it is important that we support our neighbours at this difficult time and I am sure the Dalry School community will make them feel very welcome.
To those P6 families and staff at Tollcross who’ll be with us next week, we look forward to meeting you, sharing our school with you, and to supporting you in this difficult time.
Mrs Honeyman
