Dear Parents and Carers,
Industrial action affecting schools, Thursday 24 November 2022
Shetland Islands Council have been informed that members of two teaching unions, the Education Institute for Scotland (EIS) and the Association of Head Teachers and Deputes in Scotland (AHDS) have voted to undertake industrial action on Thursday 24 November.
The school will therefore be closed for children and young people on Thursday 24 November.
The early learning and childcare setting will be also be closed.
I will write to you again, if there are any further developments or changes to the position on the planned school closure day, ahead of Thursday 24 November.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs Gina Finch
Headteacher
Children In Need Day
Children in Need Day: 18th November: This will be an opportunity to have some fun- children are invited to wear something wacky and spotty- if they would like to. Any donations can be made online at Donate to BBC Children in Need . Pupil Council have decided that to add to the fun of the day they would like to see if the school together can fill an outline Pudsey head with bronze coins- those that weigh down purses or fall down the back of the sofa. Children are invited to collect together any spare 1p and 2p coins to bring in for this challenge on Friday 18th Nov. Whatever is collected will be donated to Children in Need

Amazing Posters!
Erik, in P2, recently celebrated his 6th birthday. rather than give out party bags, his family chose to make a donation to the school. Erik picked out some lovely posters to put up in the Explore and Learn room, regularly used by P1 and 2.
Today, Erik chose where he wanted them to go and helped me up them up.
Thank you Erik!
