The Swan

We went to the pier and we put on the life jackets and went on the Swan. Rory and Scott helped us to get on the Swan. On the Swan we first went into the cabin Rory told us all about what was happening and what we will we be doing. We went out the cabin and waited soon we went out of the port. When we started to go we pulled up the sail and sailed away. Then we sat down and looked at Emer steering and called out the numbers what was shown on a echo sounder. when it said 00 we were really deep in and when it said 99 we were on top. Then me and Neil noticed a dunter putting his head in and out the water then I showed everyone else and we laughed. Then I looked starboard and we were back at the pier! We went off the Swan took our life jackets off and went back to school. Swan

The Swan Trip

Today we went on a trip on the Swan. First we looked at a chart and we saw Burravoe.

This year Emer,Sofia and Hannah  all steered the Swan and we all saw how deep the sea was by looking at the depth counter and when the number went down the we  said aaawww and when the number went up we cheered. We pulled a rope to pull the sail up it was quite heavy and it was really,really,really fun.

Trip to The Burn of Lunklet

We went to the Burn of Lunklet because we are learning about water and rivers so we went there. First I noticed the fence posts put together under the bridge then Miss Breyley said they were pollution gates they make sure no pollution goes to the sea because some people might throw junk into the water. As we went up closer to the water fall the river got narrower and  narrower as we went up. Then we looked over a bridge at the river. We threw some grass in the river we noticed that the water didn’t just go down it went in circles and then backward and then it changed speed as it went down river. We carried  on doing it, it was fun then went went to the giant water fall it was so cool if you looked carefully then it looked a bit like a jungle in a river its mostly fresh water at the beginning and as it gets near the sea it is salty water. The river is tidal at the river mouth.

Book Reveiw for Goth Girl and the Ghost of a Mouse

This was a very good book.  It was about a girl called Ada who lived in a mansion with ghosts. I felt as if I was in the book as I read it.

In some parts I said to myself OH NO! It was really funny and coinsedental. I would recommend this book for anyone who likes things to do with ghosts, it is not scary at all but ghosts get mentioned a lot.

I Really enjoyed this book!

Old Haa Visit

On Wednesday we went outside for a visit to the Old Haa. We went inside where there were lots of knitting,crochet,embroidery and there was one knitted rug. We sketched all our favourite things. After we went upstairs there were pictures of people who died in Shetland long long ago in wars. Then we went downstairs and ate some cake. It was fun.

What We’ve All Been Working for

Last night was the night, our hearts were pounding, the tension in the air and then it started.

We have been doing the BBC Ten Pieces project with Miss Smith and Mrs Martin. The Ten Pieces project by the BBC is all about ten pieces of classical music and the one we showcased last night was our addition of connect it by Anna Meredith (a living composer). We used body percussion to make music. In P.E. Miss Smith taught us a dance routine and it was really fun. Miss Smith taught us one routine and we got split into three groups. P1-3 got some help from Miss Smith, Abby, Bradley, Honor and I were in another group and P6 and P7 were in the last. We made up are own routines in our groups.

It was now or never, we had been working on this for weeks, this was our chance…………………………………………………

We did the routine Miss Smith taught us then P1-3 did their routine, we did ours then the big ones did theirs and everyone was great. I went better than any of the rehearsals. After we’d finished we went into the little hall so people could play our games. Lily really liked my game she kept coming back and playing it Philip liked my game too. Ann-marie said “it is a game suitable for all age groups”. We made £151 on the raffle.

BBC 10 Pieces and Games Design at The Burravoe Hall

Last night at the Burravoe Hall we showed our parents the BBC 10 pieces and Games design. Our hearts were pounding when we were waiting to go in to the big hall. I learned to write the names on the raffle tickets. We did our Connect-It body percussion dance that we choreographed inspired by Anna Meredith. I learned to speak loud when I did the dance so people can hear the sounds. When we did the dance we went to the small hall and family and granny’s and granddad’s came to play our games. I learned to speak to people if they don’t know about it. Ann-Marie said she loved it because she has played top trumps before and my Mum loved it because she played it before. We raised £151 from the raffle and the donations, Thank you everyone who came.
