Each week secondary 1 pupils and primary 1 & 2 pupils meet up to share and discuss a new reading book and enjoy the accompanying activities. Both secondary and primary pupils find this a very worthwhile and enjoyable experience.

Mystery at Da Laird’s Haa / Author Visit
Bookmaker Visit by Robert P.4
After milk break a book writer came in to talk to P3/4/5. She was called Christine De Luca and at the same time Iris Sandison was talking to P6/7. Christine gave us all a book each to keep it was ‘Mystery at da Laird’s Haa’ by Bjorn Sandison. It was fun and I enjoyed it. She read us some bits from the book and we read bits too. It had a lot of Shetland Dialect. Here is some I know – Muckle (big) and Peerie (small) and I know some others. She said we should be proud of knowing Shetland Dialect because it is special. I am looking forward to reading some more when I take my book home.
