Friday Assembly

Thank you to classes Whalsay and Sanda for their bonfire safety assembly.

Some of the pupils made art work, some read out the safety code and they also made a short safety code video which they showed to everyone. This video can be shared with the classes every year to highlight the Bonfire Safety code.

Well done everyone.
