Story Telling Festival

Community Unity Story Telling Festival

Class Iona are attending the Story Telling Festiaval at St Cadoc’s Primary School this afternoon.

Another opportunity to share our Community Unity experience and I’m sure the Primary 1 class will enjoy meeting new friends and listening to the stories.

Whalsay Assembly

World War 2

Class Whalsay led our assembly this week.

They invited their parents and family into school to watch their showcase.

They had prepared a presentation highlighting some of their recent topic work, World War 2.

They used the internet to  research information, collect photographs and they also visited a museum looking at lots of artefacts from the war.

The highlight of their assembly was a small drama piece all about the war. They dressed up as a charachter, sang songs and performed a dance.

Miss O’Brien took some video footage and Miss McMillan and Mrs Reed will show it to the class next week and use this as evidence for their achievement folders.

Have a look at some of our photographs below.

Gardening @ Ims

Gardening @ IMS

Classes Islay, Skye, Tiree and Whalsay have had a very productive morning, working in the sensory garden.
 
We were planting different flowers to make the garden more colourful. Lots of skills involved for the pupils and gave them a great sense of achievement.
 
All the hard work and digging was worth it, our sensory garden looks great although is a work in progress.
