Intergenerational Learning

We have started our visits to see the lovely ladies who attend the village Monday Club (cosy space). This is a very important part of our learning and helps children develop knowledge, confidence, empathy, communication skills and respect while creating meaningful relationships across generations. On our visits we have been taking part in some Bookbug sessions, sharing stories, playing games and drawing pictures. The ladies have been having as much fun as the children and we look forward to these visits.

HeartStart

our P7/6 pupils took part in valuable CPR training with HeartStart. They learned important lifesaving skills, including how to recognise an emergency, perform CPR and use a defibrillator.

It was fantastic to see everyone getting involved, listening carefully and developing skills that could one day make a real difference. 👏💙
A huge thank you to HeartStart for helping our pupils build confidence and learn these essential first-aid skills! ⭐

Play on pedals

A new set of little learners from the Early Years Centre have been getting introduced to the Play on Pedals programme recently, and they have all been doing a super job! The children have been learning all about the different parts of the different bikes, helmet safety, and using their frog legs for balance and control! We can’t wait to see them progress as we move throughout the sessions/blocks. 🚲🪖🐸

Sponsored Walk and Family Event

Our Sponsored walk was a great success with an amazing turn out of children and their families. We were so lucky with the weather as it had been heavy showers throughout the day but the sun shone for us.

We were very grateful to Wee Hae Meat for donating the burgers and to the Dailly Store for providing the juice for our BBQ. We were delighted that Harry Paton came along and joined us for the walk. We raised a grand total of £1433 from sponsor money and burger sales. This gets us off to a great start at the beginning of the year.

We were also grateful to receive a donation of £500 from the Organisers and Participants of the Dailly Community Hall Monthly Bingo, this money will help benefit our pupils
and school community. Thank you again for your support.
