Nursery to P1 Transition Video (Arabic Edition)

Here is a link to view our Nursery to P1 video with an Arabic voice over provided by Ghazal in P7.

We had hoped to provide more translated voice overs in different languages but the production process has proved slow, quite difficult and a far larger time demand on our P7s than expected.

As a result this will be the only translation we are able to make.

A big thank you again to Ghazal for all her hard work on this.

Easter Egg Contest Gallery

The Clan Chiefs are hard at work judging the entries to the Easter Egg contest, which will be announced later today.

We have been overwhelmed by the number and quality of the entries this year, especially given we weren’t able again to have a judging in school thanks to the pandemic. Hopefully next year we can do that again, especially given the amazing work by all entrants this year.

Here is a gallery of our amazing entries.

Happy Easter from Dalry Primary
