Dalry Secondary School has a W.A.A (Wednesday afternoon activities) group for the environment part of ASDAN. This group looks to improve their school and hopes that they can make the school more environmentally friendly. The pupils have plans to ask for more bins, plant more trees, pick up litter and more. The Pupils will be doing as much as they can to as much for the school and the ecosystem as they can. So far the group of 7 have: looked around the school for problems, brainstormed ideas for improvement, created posters, created this post and gotten useful information. We are undertaking 4-5 tasks in module 1, My Environment- Review and awareness raising, and plan to do the other modules soon. The other modules include: learning about the atmosphere, the urban environment, the natural environment and the wider environment. We will be taking action as soon as possible and hope that we can reduce the CO2 , plastic usage and the general problems in our environment.

aims:

1. More recycling bins
2. Plant fruit trees, and hedges
3. Continue to develop the pond
4.  An environmental campaign about improving the school

 

DALRY SECONDARY – Cinderella Dec 2019

Dalry Secondary put on a performance of TLC Creative’s Pantomime Cinderella in December.  This was a hugely entertaining evening for audience and performers alike.  Virtually everyone in the school was involved in the production in some way – acting; sound and lights; scenery and set design; publicity and marketing; front of house……even hoovering up glitter at the end!  We are very proud of what the pupils achieved – both in putting on the show and in their wider learning as part of the Dalry team!

Happy new year and welcome back to our pupils for a busy and long term!

The S4 pupils have been busy revising for their prelim exams which they will sit next week. These are full length exams and will give them a taste of the real thing in May.

The S3 and S4 pupils also have a parents evening on Wednesday the 22th January where we will discuss their current progress and options for the following year.

During the week of the 20th January, the school will welcome a team of HMIE inspectors. The staff are eager to demonstrate all the wonderful things Dalry school offers.

S1-S3 reports should also be coming home on the 17th January, so look forward to post in their bags.

Teen Boost & HPV immunisations will be offered on the 29th January.

And finally, the half term holidays are from the 15th of Feb. to the 23rd Feb. with pupils returning on the Monday the 24th.
