This year Primary 3 were asked to make the shields for Mr Spence’s Norwick Up Helly Aa galley. We had a great time creating our designs and then painting the shields. We even got a chance to use them today in our own school Up Helly Aa!
Primary 3 would like to say a big good luck to Mr Spence, and thank him for letting us play a part in his big day! 🙂
day! 🙂
Today P2/3 organised a mini Up Helly Aa for the primary and nursery to come and watch. We made shields, hemlets, torches and Mr Burke even built us a galley! We had a great time singing the Up Helly Aa song, roaring like Vikings and watching the galley burn.
This week in class on Monday we got a box containing seeds and paper cups to plant spinach, baby carrots, runner beans, peas and cress. We to choose which we wanted to grow. We got a set of instructions for each plant. We each got a cup which we filled with soil and set the seeds and if it needed to be topped of then we would but the cress did not need topped up. Now we check on them everyday to see if they need to be watered.
Now quite a few of the plants have sprouted but a few are yet to grow.
