A busy start to P5!

We have had a great start settling in to P5. The class have started their swimming block and have taken part in bikeability and judo sessions. We have started our new class topic – natural disasters and have been learning lots in numeracy, literacy and health and wellbeing. Here are some photos of a STEM challenge where the class were tasked with creating their own mini golf hole. We worked on our teamwork, communication and creativity skills during this.

Pupil led Equalities Lesson in P6

Our P6 Equalities reps, Noemi and Nima, delivered their final lesson on Disabilities to the class. The duo decided to focus on learning about Dyslexia, ADHD, Autism and visual impairment. 

The class worked in groups and had some experience of what it might feel like for some people who have these difficulties through different activities. It was another successful lesson, with lots of questions and discussion, from Noemi and Nima! We’re looking forward to the next equalities lesson from our new reps Olivia and Oreofe next session. Well done girls! 

A busy start in P2b

What a busy start to Primary 2! We have been enjoying exploring the different areas in our new classroom. We have all been trying our best to share and include everyone when we are playing. 
We have started our seashore topic where we have looked at habitats, lifecycles and food chains. We enjoyed making our own food chains in the shark’s mouth! 
In maths, we have been looking at patterns and have had a go at creating our own. We have even enjoyed a taster session of judo and a visit to the school library! 

Digital School Award August 2023

We are absolutely delighted to let you know that we have successfully achieved our Digital Schools Award. We are only one of three primary schools to achieve this in Edinburgh to date. It is a testament to Mrs Laidler, and the staff and pupils at Dalry Primary School who have worked extremely hard to gain recognition in the area of Digital Literacy.

How did we spend week 3 in P2A? 

Building and model making, drawing pictures to show SHANARRI, creating peg board patterns, learning to play snap and playground games, experimenting with Judo, learning to listen and taking part in play with our P7 friends. Phew! It’s been a busy week!
