On Thursday the 6th of February we went to the Yell Police Station in Mid Yell .We all went in the cell and it was really small and the bed wasn’t comfortable. I learned what a cell look liked. I learned what they wear when they need to go to different occasions. The kit we put on was really heavy and WAY to big for us. I thought that when I went to the Police Station I learned a lot from it. I enjoyed it.
Next week we will visit the Fire Station.

Thank you to everyone who came along to our Burns Super last night.
Pupils performed dialect poems and songs, as well as older pupils reciting Burns poetry.
We shared our own Burns inspired poems and our portraits, as everyone enjoyed the haggis, neeps and tatties prepared by pupils and staff.

Primary 1- 3 will receive their book bags and read write count bags today from our librarian. We have been reading the P1 books in school so we can take them home and share with our families.
This morning we took part in the Gruffalo 20th anniversary #BBCAuthorsLive event, hearing the story read in Scots and Gaelic. All over Scotland schools shared favourite Scots words, and we tweeted in some of our favourite dialect words, peerie and clatch!

Fireworks and Bonfires
Fireworks go so high
Right up in the sky
The noise they make is WHIZZ POP BOOM!
Woof goes the dog inside his room,
Make sure you don’t go to near the fire
As it crackles it will burn down the empire.
Fireworks
Fizz, goes the firework as it is lit.
Whizz, goes the firework as it fly’s to the sky.
Pop, goes the firework as it explodes.
Boom, goes the firework as it all falls to bits.
Explosions of colour erupt in the sky.
There is no need for you to lie.

Thank you to everyone who baked, made donations and came along today to join us raising money. 
We had a BookBug session at 2.30, which everyone from pre nursery through to secondary (and beyond!) joined in with.
We would like to offer a special thanks to the parents and staff who gave up their time to help set up and clean up after.
The fundraising total will be released on Monday!

I did swimming on six weeks every Thursday. I learned how to do the front crawl with my eyes in the water
I did not like putting my eyes in the water but I actually ended up doing it

Primary 7 organised a messy play day, with water balloons, gloop and jelly! Luckily the rain stayed away while we were playing, and came along and washed everything clean later in the afternoon.
We we hope everyone had as much fun on the last day of term as we did, thank you to our P7s for organising everything for us.
Have a super summer!

At Burravoe school we found a cabbage white butterfly it was on the pavement. But we picked it up and saved it we gave it flowers, he liked the dandelions and buttercups best. In the end we gave him some sugary water he got better but we are still taking care of him.
