Parents and Carers,
Please can you fill in the short survey linked below regarding digital access. The council are trying to work out how to proceed with digital learning and a big sample will help provide them with a clearer picture of what is possible.
While the time, pandemic and lockdown we are living through is challenging for us all it is also clearly one of the biggest things that has ever happened in history.
That means that you are a person in history, like a Victorian, or a Roman or Second World War child
So it is a great time to create a time capsule that will allow you and future people can see what is like to live as a child in The Great Lockdown.
Here is a template if you wanted to do this as an optional learning activity.
Dear Parents and Carers,
Please can you support your child to complete the following survey which will support the NHS with planning during the lockdown.

Nearly back to home school but there’s still time for some holiday fun courtesy of Scotrail who have provided the linked train related tasks below.
The Children and Young People’s Speech and Language Therapy Service (SLT) wanted Dalry Primary to pass on to the relevant families the information that they are still operating Monday to Friday but that they are only contactable by phone for relevant families.
For families, a SLT Service Advice Line has been set up. It is staffed Monday-Friday from 10.00-12.00; Tel. 0131 286 5036 / 0131 453 9315.
Artist and great friend of the school Damian Callan has sent us the below message with links to some great free art videos.
I just wanted to let you know about some free art videos that I have been producing together with an artist friend, Aine Divine. Called ’14 Days of Art & Creativity’ these are daily prompts for both adults and children and I wondered if they would be of interest to parents and children at the school.
If anyone wants to follow these up they are on my website under ‘online classes’ (www.damiancallan.com) or Aine’s YouTube channel
Here’s today’s from me:
Drawing musical instruments with collage and different pens and pastels.
Best wishes
Damian
Normally Mr Bennett likes to produce a guide to free and cheap family things to do out and about during the holidays.
Well that’s a bit tricky this Easter.
So instead here is his digital staying in guide.
Here are some useful Local Supports
