Celebrating Home Learning 19.6.20

Primary 3/4 pupils have been doing some fantastic learning about a country of their choice. They have been researching traditional food for their chosen countries and have prepared some super themed meals.

Niall’s French meal:

   

Rory’s meal from Madagascar

Freya’s American meal:

Primary 1 do like sharing their home leaning with Mrs Fitzsimmons.

P3  and P3/4 have picked different countries to learn about this week. They also created a menu and cooked a meal for families from their chosen country.

 Letter to Parents & Carers – Reopening of Schools in D&G

Further information will follow in due course about the reopening of Dalbeattie Primary School.  We continue to work with an ever changing picture and will share what we can when we have more definite details around classes, groupings and what the school day may look like for our young people on their return to school  in August

Thank you

Transition Week beginning 15th June 2020

All classes have a transition activity as part of their learning grid this week. Please support and encourage your son/daughter to complete this task. Unfortunately we are unable to carryout our normal moving on afternoon so this information will help new class teachers get to know your young person better.

Further information is also being delivered to our new P1 pupils. This contains an ‘All about me Activity and an information letter for parents.

Some short information videos will also be available soon.

Current P7 Pupils should be continuing with their Transition activities that are being shared through the Transitions Team that they are all part of.

 

Pupil Reports 

At this time in the school year we usually send home a summary report of your child’s progress. Learning has been  affected by lockdown but despite this it is important that we share with you the progress in learning that your son/daughter has made from August 2019 to the end of March 2020.  

Reports will be issued on Friday via email. Please keep a check for emails arriving – times will vary depending on the speed of our system. 

If we do not have an email address for you then reports will be delivered to you in due course.
