If one of the children in the Dalry community has achieved something special outside of school, from sporting success to chess, from environmental work to volunteering, or even an especially interesting activity, we love to hear about it in school.
If you think it’s worth a shout out here on the website as well then either talk to Mr Bennett if you see him or send an email and photo or two adressed to FAO Mr Bennett to the school’s admin email address.
Wider Achievements are celebrated in news posts which are also filtered in the wider achievments menu of the website.

Before the half term holidays Dalry Primary was experiencing election fever as the annual vote to choose our Clan Chiefs and Deputes arrived.
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
Congratulations to all our great candidates successful and unsuccessful.

There’s a lot of great work going up on display all around the school at the moment. Well done on the hard work to all the classes and well done on the hard work to all the staff putting up displays, but most of all to our queen of the staple gun, Mrs Arundel.

Are you a family thinking about enrolling at Dalry Primary?
Normally we would be hosting an open day with school tours but COVID 19 restrictions still make this impossible at present.
If you do want to take a video tour of the school we can offer you 2 different ones filmed in the last year.
The first is a thorough tour led by students aimed at families as a whole.
Our Second video is a tour aimed at Nursery into P1 families and gives a tour more focused on a day in the life of a P1. This tour is available in English or Arabic.

We hope you enjoy these videos and we see you in the near future at Dalry Primary.

Are you concerned about your child watching inappropriate content online? Even if you use the browser controls to block inappropriate websites many streaming services, from Netflix to Disney + host content designed for adults and teens that would be very inappropriate for any child in our school to be viewing.
Sometimes the labels and postings may look child friendly but be anything but. The latest example we are hearing about in school is Squid Games which, with playground games and hot pastel colours the sets look at a glance like it may be a kid’s game show. But it is actually a bloodsoaked, ultra-violent, satirical drama for adults.
The streamers do flag this content with age ratings, but kids are unlikely to notice, read or respect those every time.
To protect children from viewing this content accidentally all mainstream video streaming sites have also have parental controls which just take a moment to set up. Without these switched on though your child is only a click or two away from sexually explicit, violent content and depictions of drug taking. So taking a few minutes to turn protections on is worthwhile.
We’ve linked to videos below to help you quickly set the parental controls on the most popular services.

Disney+

Here are some few photos of P7B at Bikeability. P7B had a great time at Bikeability and enjoyed showing off their new riding skills.
The first photo shows the girls doing a ‘M’ check – checking the bike is safe to ride. All pupils worked really hard and were super at supporting each other. Mrs Clements was very impressed at their determination and confidence. Thanks to Miss Low for her excellent teaching!
