P5s visit the Shetland Times

On Thursday, P5s went to visit the Shetland Times.  We had a fantastic trip and really enjoyed being shown all the steps in publishing the local newspaper.  

 

 

Not only did we watch how they loaded the machines full of newspaper ready for printing we also got to have a look at all the other machines they have in the building.  We learned all about the other types of products that they can produce including our very own recipe book.

A big thank you to the staff at the Shetland Times for making time for our visit and also for providing all the children with a mock up front page of the paper to take home.

The recipe book is currently in production and should be ready before the summer holidays.  There will be some extra copies available to buy from the school office at a cost of £6 each.
