It was a great pleasure to go along to school today as a representative of the Parent and Carers Council to see all our P7’s in their brand new ‘Class of 26’ hoodies. Many thanks to all of those who helped make this possible. This includes everyone who supported our Bake Sale at the Parent Teacher interviews, the staff at Dalry, and the PCC would like to make an extra big THANK YOU to Alex from Throat Punch Coffee on Dalry road for sourcing the hoodies and making a financial donation towards them as well.   

It is a busy time of year for the PCC. We just had a great market stall at the Craiglockhart Primary School Christmas Market, and our elves are busy behind the scenes wrapping books for the P1-P3 students. We are also getting the snack organised for the Cinema trip. 

Ways you can help: If you are doing any online shopping you can sign up to Easy Fundraising and select ‘Dalry Primary PC- Edinburgh’. Then before you start shopping just login to Easy Fundraising and go to your preferred retailer through their search bar. There is no cost to you but every shop will earn money for Dalry Primary.  

Toy donations: If you are doing a clear out of toys you can donate good quality toys and games to the PCC, we will use them at our next market stall. Just label any donations with ‘Parent Council’ and leave them at the school. 

If you have other ideas about fundraising or want to get more involved please email dalryPrimaryPC@gmail.com or come along to our next meeting on the 21st January.

On Thursday 25th April the Dalry Primary Parents and Carers Council hosted an event in the gym hall to celebrate EID – the Muslim celebration to mark the end of Ramadan.

We received donations from the Dalry Co-op, Pizza Geeks, The Clock and Chippy Junction as well as many generous (and tasty) donations from individual families which helped to make for a memorable gathering. 

Thanks to everyone who worked hard to make this a great event. 

Primary 7 would like to say a massive thank you to the Parent Council. We are absolutely delighted with our new hoodies.
