What a busy day we’ve had in Primary 1.  Lots of people came wearing their pyjamas for Sports Relief and also brought money to buy cakes and give donations.  We started the day with 4 laps of the school along with all the primary and secondary pupils.

Afterwards, as a treat, we had hot chocolate.

Some of us bought cakes from the cake stall.

We then enjoyed watching the 2018 Sports Relief song and we also watched a video about where some of the money raised by Sports Relief goes.

These are some of the things we learned about Daniel;

“Daniel lives in Ghana……he is 10 years old……he has to work 8 hours a day……..he has to go down in a deep, dangerous hole to find gold…….he doesn’t wear any shoes or gloves or hard hat……he has to get money for his family to help get food, medicine and let him go to school…….he only goes to school some days…….he is so happy to go to school.”

Arlene came in with a letter to Paddington all the way from Peru.  It was from his Aunt Lucy.  She said she was really missing him and had sent him a ticket to get home.  We thought about it really carefully and decided that we had to let him go.  He leaves Shetland next Friday.

Finally, it was Cari’s birthday today and she chose 2 bakers to help make a chocolate cake.  It was yummy!

Have a good weekend everyone.
