Many thanks to all those who organised and helped run our anniversary afternoon tea in the school today. The event was a great success and was very well supported. Thanks to all those who attended we hope you enjoyed your afternoon.
Pictures from the event will follow next week.
Six P7 pupils worked alongside pupils from Dalbeattie High School to make the scones, cakes and tray bakes for our Anniversary Afternoon Tea. The children worked collaboratively under the guidance and supervision of Mrs Houston from Dalbeattie High School. Thanks you to Mrs Houston and the class from Dalbeattie High School for the support with this event.
On Tuesday 3rd of May Mrs Duncan attended the Dalbeattie Sea Cadet Inspection Night and Parade. The Cadets and Guard were inspected by Inspecting Officer : Captain Peter Adams RN. Captain Adams said that the cadets all looked very smart and he was impressed with their drill movements. The senior cadets shared a PowerPoint called “A Blast from the Past” about the history of the Dalbeattie Sea Cadet Unit. After Stand Easy (refreshments) the junior and senior cadets then carried out a First Aid demonstration with equipment purchased from funds donated by Dalbeattie Rotary Club. At the end of the evening the cadets ended the night with evening colours and a presentation of trophies to achieving cadets.

The first group of Primary Fives visited Carlingwark Loch yesterday with Mrs Graham and Mrs Robison to carry out some fun activities with the Outdoor Education team. The children were split into three groups and took part in sailing, kayaking and canoeing. All the children had a great time and were very enthusiastic throughout. Some even braved the cold and snow to have a little swim at the end!
Well done!

Thank you Dalbeattie Co-op!
Work has begun on our new Dalbeattie Learning Campus. In Term 4, we shall be taking classes to view the construction site. We are very grateful to Dalbeattie High School for helping to organise this in partnership with us. We are also delighted to be able to contribute, from time to time, to a weekly bulletin, produced by the High School, for the new build site. We shall provide links to this when available. Dalbeattie Primary School will also update this page with pictures of our class visits, as they happen, and give a brief overview of progress on site. Please also note, that the Primary School has a display of the plans and construction timetable for your information, on the wall next to the Office area.In the meantime, we are pleased to post the following two photographs of the site, taken from the High School’s windows.
