Nursery Big Sing

BIG SING END OF YEAR CELEBRATION

 

We all enjoyed taking part in a ‘Big Sing’. We went to the school hall and Mrs Ewen played the piano. We sang nursery rhymes and songs we learned in the nursery and at home as part of our Sponsored Rhyme. We hope you enjoy the photos.

Thank you to all of you for coming and to those children, friends and family who raised over £100 for the nursery!!!  We are going to think about something to buy, possibly a music ‘boom box’ that we can use inside and outside when we want to sing and dance.

Dalry Wins Prize for Robotics and Coding

On Monday our P6 roboteers (Adam, Shree and Fabio, with support from Mr Bennett and Kunal) took their place in the grand final of the Edinburgh schools robotics and coding competition – “Marty’s Coding Party”.

They won the technical achievement prize, bringing home a second Marty coding robot for the school and were the only primary in Edinburgh to gain an award in the contest, which was open to all primaries and secondaries.

Our award was given for coding quality and cleverness in engineering a new sensor system.

Here are our team being given their prize by the CEO of Robotical.

Robotical are the designers of Marty and co-sponsored the challenge along with CGI and Edinburgh Council.

Well done to Team Dalry!
