Listen as classes Whalsay and Tiree discuss Scottish Inventors.
As part of the lesson plan, pupils had to create their own invention, have a look at Toby’s inventions.
He wrote about his invention and then drew a plan. I’m sure a few of our pupils would like this idea to be patented.

Many thanks to the 4 students, Jen, Joe, Sharon and Hannah from Royal Conservatoire Scotland for working with pupils from Class Tiree.
The pupils gained so much from the workshops and
the performances. They had a great time forming friendships
and exploring the theme of ‘finding your voice’; finding who you
are and being proud of it.
The session finished today with two performances to staff
and pupils from school and also to some of the students from the Royal Conservatoire course.

All the pupils had a part to play in the story and
enthusiastically performed in front of an audience.
Sean played the part of the tiger with our volunteer Phil and smiled all the way through at his antics.
They used their switches to activate the sound effects.
Rob especially loved the door bell effect.
