Pictures from flat races today. You will see from these that the weather was not in our favour. The children were all amazing and a bit of rain didn’t stop them taking part. Let’s hope for sunshine tomorrow and we will try and finish some of the P1-P3 races.
Below you will find videos of our team races that we began sports day with today. The classes and teams all did really well and showed very sporting and supportive attitudes.
Thank you to everyone that took part in the competition. We had some very creative and imaginative entries. Dalbeattie Lions Club judged the entries this week and I am now delighted to share the results with you. I would also like to thank Dalbeattie Lions Club for their support in funding prizes and their donation to school funds.
You may recall from one of my weekly messages during lockdown that I shared the fantastic news that we
have achieved our 7th Eco green Flag. To celebrate our achievement, Mrs Howie has planned a fantastic 7k
for 7 Flags event for families to participate in over the Easter holidays. There is also a photo competition to
enter as part of the event. Dalbeattie Rotary, another partnership organisation to the school, are sponsoring
prizes for the photo competition. Please note the information needed at the end of the trail (for question 7)
will not be available until the holidays actually start.
Information about the event is posted below.
A busy final week in the hub. Creating cartoons using drama, photos and technology. Further creative art and craft ideas. Construction and building using Lego and Kaplia. Mrs Fortnum also hosted a table top games afternoon.
I hope everyone is well this week and staying safe. This is my final weekly message before we welcome the P4-P7 classes back to school next week. Hopefully, I will be able to deliver my assembly next week live to all classes again from the office. I hope this message today encourages the children to think about meeting friends old and new as they return to school next week. I also hope the children can think about their own special qualities and those of others as we all come back together in school.
Staff are all looking forward to welcoming the classes back and are here to help and support pupils as we know this is once again another change as we return to school.
Please find attached a copy of a template letter that is being sent out to all parents and carers about a new online payment and pre-ordering system for school meals that we will be using here at Dalbeattie Primary.

Should you have any questions about this new system,please contact the email address on the letter.
Once again a busy week for all both in terms of home learning and in school learning. It has been great to join a few more Teams meetings this week and see some of the children not currently with us in school. I have also enjoyed hearing about and seeing all the World Book Day activities that have been taking place. My weekly message today focusses on one of my favourite books that I Iike to share with the children in school at assemblies and the theme of kindness.
