P6 and 7 Opera Aliens

Leave a reply

This week P6 and P7 were joined by Scottish Opera to perform THE LAST ALIENS at St Brides Centre.

It was really amazing to finally be able to do one of the big calendar events of the year in a way that was nearly normal. But sadly that nearly meant parents and carers couldn’t attend.

We hope the above recording goes a long way to making up for not being able to come.

So please enjoy the AMAZING performance by our talented P6s and P7s!

Maths Enrichment Opportunities From Edinburgh University

Leave a reply

Edinburgh University are offering 2 opportunities to stretch those number brains

Here it the information they have sent us.

Online Maths Circle- Saturday 26th March 2022

An online Maths Circles is one hour long events for 7-14 years old and their families. Children have a chance to tackle a variety of mathematical problems guided by University of Edinburgh staff and students. They are encouraged to behave as little mathematicians as they make conjectures, explore and explain possible solutions to open ended questions. We think these event would benefit all students, and not only the high achieving.

Most of the activities we use during our Maths Circles are courtesy of nRich (https://nrich.maths.org/) 

The next online Maths Circle will be this Saturday (26th March). Attendance is free but booking is required. 

Further details and info on how to book can be found at: https://www.maths.ed.ac.uk/school-of-mathematics/outreach/maths-circle 

Circles in Maths, Nature and Everyday Life (Edinburgh Science Festival): 9th- 13th April 2022

In April 2022 we will contribute to the Edinburgh Science festival with a drop-in session taking place at the National Museum of Scotland. Our activities will explore the characteristics of the circle, and how such characteristics underpin various aspects of science, technology and everyday life, such as using a map or rolling a coin through a vending machine.

Our Clan Chiefs 2021-22

Leave a reply

Before the half term holidays Dalry Primary was experiencing election fever as the annual vote to choose our Clan Chiefs and Deputes arrived.

Our Elected Representatives for 2021-22

In the weeks before polling day the candidates wrote and performed amazing video hustings speeches and produced brilliant campaign posters. Many staff commented that this election was the hardest and most passionately fought in their time at Dalry. Each morning before school and at break and lunch candidates were seen canvassing for support and waving banners.

Dalry democracy has never been healthier.

Our election day results were announced by Mr Linton and P6 who put on a brilliant election day special assembly teams call.

It was only last week that Mrs Honeyman was able to present the successful candidates with their official badges of office. So now that they have their proper accoutrements of office let us present the Chiefs and Deputes for 2021-22
