South Ayrshire Body Essentials Project

Our Primary 6 and 7 pupils were very happy to receive their personal hygiene bags as part of our South Ayrshire Body Essentials Project. Primary 6 and 7 pupils were consulted on which products they would like as part of their Right to give opinions on issues that affect them(Article 12 from the UNCRC).
A huge thanks to our Parent Partnership who very kindly matched our funding from the South Ayrshire Body Essentials Project which meant that all of our primary 6 and 7 pupils were able to receive their personal hygiene bags.
Many thanks to Elise from Childsmile who donated toothbrushes, toothpaste and other Childsmile goodies for our pupils.
The feedback from the children was that they would love some perfume or aftershave, which Boots very kindly donated. A huge thank you to Susan McMillan and Gillian Lamb from Boots in Ayr. The pupils were so happy and excited to receive these as part of their bags.
Pupil voice:
‘We loved the perfume and aftershave’
‘We appreciate it a lot’
‘The hygiene bags were great and really useful’
‘It made us so happy. Thank you for all your donations’

Red Nose Day 2026

🔴What a fantastic Red Nose Day we’ve had at school on Friday! 🔴
A huge thank you to everyone who took part, donated, and supported our fundraising efforts.
We are delighted to share that together we raised an amazing £402.69! 🎉 Every penny will go towards helping those in need, and we couldn’t have done it without our wonderful school community.
Thank you again for your generosity and support – you’ve made a real difference! ❤️

Young Carers

At Dailly Primary School and Early Years Centre we are committed to identifying and supporting children who are Young Carers. A Young Carer is anyone under the age of eighteen who supports, or helps to support a relative, friend or neighbour.  They may need extra support due to an illness, disability, mental health condition, because they are elderly, neurodivergent, have issues relating to drugs or alcohol or because they need help to communicate. No diagnosis is required for the cared for person.

Please see the link below to open the Thinglink for Young Carers. This link gives you access to a variety of information including information about South Ayrshire’s Young Carer Policy and how to access  free leisure activities.

Young Carer Toolkit

Mrs Kirkwood is our Young Carers Champion. A Young Carers Champion is a member of the school staff who acts as a point of contact for all Young Carers in each school. Our Young Carers meet with Mrs Kirkwood every Wednesday afternoon to discuss ways the school can support them, get help with homework, discuss their feelings if they wish and plan ways to educate the whole school about the role of a young carer and support they may need. They also take part in wellbeing activities.

 

Some of our Young Carers have created this very informative powerpoint. This will be shared with all children in the school at assembly.
