PRIMARY 1/2 POP-UP CAFE

Leave a comment

When Primary 1 and 2 decided they wanted to have a pop-up café at the end of term, we began planning and thinking about what we would need to get and do.  We spoke about foods/drinks which would be easy to make in a busy classroom and also considered food allergies.

This week we have been busy baking and making sandwiches.  Everybody took part and worked really well together.

This morning, we were delighted to see so many people come into the classroom.  We had to have 2 different sittings as there were so many people wanting to come!  We had a fantastic time with everyone enjoying the food and drink and our waiters/waitresses working very hard attending on their tables.  Guests were then invited to go and see all the excellent gardening work they have been doing recently with Duncan in the greenhouse and polytunnel.

Donations given this morning amounted to £176.51 which we will put towards a trip next term.  Sincere thanks to everyone who gave so generously.

I hope everyone enjoyed their morning and will now enjoy a well deserved Easter break.  See you all in 2 weeks!

‘A Christmas Recipe’

1 Comment

Yesterday, primary 1 and 2 performed ‘A Christmas Recipe’ with fantastic support from primaries 3 and 4. We had our first practice in the morning and all the Early Years children and primaries 5/6/7 came to watch.  In the afternoon the mums, dads, uncles, aunties, grannies, grandads, brothers, sisters, cousins and friends came to watch our performance.  We put on our costumes and some of us got our face painted.

We felt excited, happy and a bit nervous but we felt we did a very good job and enjoyed performing it.  We worked very hard to learn all the songs for the nativity.

We would like to thank all the staff who helped make ready for the performance,  all the mums, dads and family members who came to watch it.  We hope you all enjoyed it!

A big “thank you” to our narrators from primary 5 who did a fantastic job!

 

MEGAN AND HARRY’S WEDDING DAY

1 Comment

After weeks of careful planning and preparation, the day of Megan and Harry’s wedding had finally come last Friday.  Everybody in Primaries 1 and 2 had a busy morning getting ready.

The guests, ushers and bridal party were ready to go.

Everybody began to arrive at the church.

Followed by the groom, his bestmen, pageboys and father of the bride.

Finally the bride, her bridesmaids and flowergirls arrived.

Reverend Dobby led a lovely wedding service.

  

Time to leave the church and enjoy the confetti!

We then went back to the school for our reception.

The day was complete with a disco/dance to GTL.

We had a fantastic day and were extremely grateful to Reverend Dobby, Ray and Betty Ferrie and Duncan for helping to make our day so special.

 

SPORTS RELIEF DAY IN PRIMARY 1

1 Comment

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.

Making shields for the Norwick Up Helly Aa

3 Comments

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! 🙂
