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.

Art Videos From Damian Callan
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
