Easter Celebrations

We certainly got into holiday mode today by coming to nursery in our pyjamas to help support Isobel Mair School’s very own Special Olympian Rhythmic Gymnast, Amy Clark.

We have raised £74.39 for Amy to help support her venture to the GB National Games.

In addition to our pyjama day, we welcomed a very special fluffy friend who delivered some Easter Treats to all our children, courtesy of the Parent Council – many thanks from all our delighted boys and girls.

Nursery will reopen after the Spring Break on Tuesday 18th April. Have a wonderful holiday.

Lots of Socks

Today the children wore ‘Lots of Socks’ to support Down’s syndrome Awareness Day. Have a look at the creative ways the children supported this event…..

Why socks? Well, because chromosomes look like socks and people with Down’s syndrome have an extra chromosome!

Well done everybody 🙂

Red Nose Day 2017

Isobel Mair School classes Yell, Unst and Fetlar have been busy processing their orders of red noses in REDiness for the big day on Friday 24^th March. There’s still time to order your nose if you have not alREDy done so!

Order forms are on the table in the foyer – please complete and return to myself or Joanne to ensure you have a nose on the day! The cut off day for ordering is Monday 20^th March.

All money raised will help people living really tough lives in the UK and across Africa. For example £2.50 could buy a mosquito net to protect a family in Africa. In the UK, £5 could pay for an isolated elderly person with dementia to have dinner at their local support group. On their behalf, thank you.

The children are encouraged to bring a donation, wear red on Friday and of course have their noses on!
