Bottle Top Mural

Primary 5 have been working hard creating this bottle top mural which we are hoping will eventually find a home in the P5-7 playground.  Lots of hard work has gone into this and congratulations to Kyja and Abigail who won the competition for the design.

This has really opened our eyes to the plastic issues our environment is facing – just look at how many bottle tops we used and we still have lots left over!  A big thank you to everyone who collected bottle tops for us.

 

   

Sands of Sound with P4

Primary 4 classes headed to the Sands of Sound last Friday to explore the rockpools and find out what lives around our Shetland shoreline.

First, we all got tangled up in a food web!

Then we went looking for living things in rockpools.

Before we left the beach we had a sandcastle competition.

Lilly, Finlay and Mia were the overall winners!

It was a fantastic morning and a great way to finish off our topic about living things.

Thank you very much to  Mason and Willows’ dads for coming with us and we hope you all have a very HAPPY HOLIDAY!

Going Wild!

Pupils from our Early Learning and Childcare Setting, with a little help from some P6 pupils enjoyed planting some wild flowers on the small hill outside the setting.  We hope that over time this will improve the area and attract some birds and insects.

Special thanks to Olaf Isbister and the Planticrub for their kind donation of flowers and for providing the equipment for our young people to use.

Thank You Lerwick Port Authority

We have been extremely lucky to receive a donation of  20 trees from the Lerwick Port Authority.  This donation from the Port Authority offsets their paper usage.

This morning Lerwick Port Authority were on hand to support our staff and pupils to plant these trees at the back of our school car park.  Once these trees grow we are hoping that as well as enhancing the area it will reduce the amount of grass cutting required.  All helping the environment.

Look at the feedback we received from Port Authority staff about our young people:

‘The pupils were excellent. They were friendly and enthusiastic, confident with people new to them and very keen to participate. Everyone got a chance to get involved with all parts of the planting process and they worked very well together. Their behaviour was a credit to themselves and the school.’
