Preparing for Yell Show

On Friday we had some thoughts about what veg to enter into the Yell show. We decided to pull up Totties, carrots, lettuce and cauliflower. So we went out side and opened our tottie bags and the types were Shetland Blacks, Whichill and Sarpo Mira. Once all the totties were out we put them inside then we pulled up 2 Cauliflowers and 3 Lettuce’. Inside Jennifer trimmed the Lettuce and Cauliflower while we weighed the Totties. The small ones chose the 4 biggest ones of each sort. We had lots left over so we put them in bags of 8. We had to choose which lettuces to enter and which Cauliflowers to enter. We won 1st Cauliflower, 1st for lettuce, 2nd for Carrots and Totties.

I Walked To My Grandad’s

I walked to my grandad’s with my Dad and Leah and Neil on Sunday. It was a sunny day on Sunday. Neil and Leah scared the sheep and the sheep ran away. Neil was being silly. I talked to Dad when we walked. Leah went on her wheel chair. Then we saw my grandad’s house.

The East Yell Show

I went to the East Yell Show on Saturday and the school entered in three different sorts of tatties and carrots, lettuce and cauliflower. We got a second for our carrots and a first for our lettuce. We also got a first for our cauliflower and a third for our early tatties.

There were a lot of ponies this year that were entered except I don’t know who won. There was four, small, white bunnies that were for sale. They were very cute.

There also was a stall about the wind farms that might be going up in Burravoe. It told you all about where they were maybe going to be placed and other information.

Our First Glow meet from Shetland

We had a glow meet with Christine De Luca.Christine De Luca, she was using glow at Sound Primary School this is their website http://www.sound.shetland.sch.uk/. It was great, Christine De Luca read and translated George’s Marvellous Medicine by Roald Dahl in to Shetland Dialect. Sadly we didn’t finished it. Here is a link to Christine De Luca website http://www.christinedeluca.co.uk/pages/inta_shetland . They were lots of school about 47 schools that came from Shetland, some of them I never heard of. We got to ask questions to Christine De Luca, I asked had she ever met Roald Dahl but sadly she said no. There were lots and lots of questions for Christine De Luca like what was her favourite children book was.

The Yell Show

On Saturday I went to the Yell Show but I had to do a lot of preparing before it. I entered pictures, pottery, a stool, Hama beads, knitting, baking and flowers and I got a rosette. My pottery was a clay sculpture of a Lewis Chessman, my stool was wooden with a woven seat, my Hama beads was a star with a flower in the middle of it. My knitting was a big humpty dumpty which I got a rosette for, my baking was American Muffins, a mini cake, Rainbow Buns and a Victoria sponge and my flowers was just flowers in a vase.
