Football Friendly
Football Friday at IMS
This afternoon we welcomed pupils from Kersland School for a friendly footbal match.
The game began with the primary team and the enthusiasm to win was immense…………… great control of the ball from both teams.
The final score was 3 -1 to Isobel Mair thanks to 2 own goals from Daniel at Kersland School.
The senior teams began with a group huddle and team chant and then the game began………….|
The fighting spirit from both teams was evident to see as they moved quickly around the pitch, desperate to score a goal. IMS was quickly in the lead but then some great control from Kersland School made the score equal……… after a few tense minutes Kersland scored some great goals to put them in the lead…..
The final score was 11 -8 to Kersland.
Well done to everyone who took part in this 1st friendly game. Great team work, enthusiasm, sportsmanship and tactics from both teams.

SQA Work
“Wee G”
Class Yell as part of their SQA Scottish Studies “Talking part in a performance with a Scottish context” wrote a short drama story.
With the help of Miss Antelmi, the script was written and everyone was given a part to play. The performance was filmed as part of their evidence.
Class Shetland then joined them as part of their joint assembly and another short drama performance was written.
This allowed skills such as listening skills, team work, communication skills, creative writing, performing to an audience and self evaluation to be developed and allow them to become successful learners and confident young people.
