P7 set off today on their overnight residential to Voxter Centre.  Excited and nervous, the P7s packed the minibus arriving at Voxter about 10am giving time to settle in before setting off to Brae Leisure Center for some fun in the pool with the inflatable fun run and then  outside  for  more fun with  the Zoorb balls and crazy golf, followed by a fish and chip tea at Frankie’s.  There will be a further update tomorrow with more pictures when the children return to school 3pm.

10th March 2023.  What a spectacular day that was enjoyed by everyone. The weather for perfect, snow with sunshine for our P7 Jarl Squad led by Jade  aka Lagertha-  the victorious shield maiden  to walk through the ranks to follow the fire engine down to the pitch to set light to the galley, built by John, which has sat for 3 years in the school hall, waiting for this moment.  It was great to be joined by many parents and members of the community  as well as the fire service and marshals.  Thank you all.  Guiser Jarl Jimmy aka Einar Hjaltendingur and his squad joined us in the school  hall in the afternoon for a rousing version of the Up Helly Aa song as well as the school’s own Jimmy the Jarl song.  A great time was had by all. Thanks again for all came along to support this wonderful day.

We have received notice that all schools in Shetland are to close early today due to snow!

We will only be closing slightly early and are expecting the buses to arrive at 2:45pm.

Parents/Carers who are with us for the Jarl Squad visit can take their child/ren home afterwards – please just ensure their class teacher is aware.

If there are any changes to your child’s normal home-time arrangements please email or ring the office before 2:45pm to let us know!
