What a really special day we’ve had! An excellent procession and galley burning this morning and a noisy Jarl Squad visit in the afternoon. It’s just a shame that the later celebrations have had to be postponed. Here are some photos from today … including Mascot Max! He’ll be returning to the Children’s Parliament with some amazing stories to tell!

The two snow closure days have stopped us doing some of our planned activities for our Viking themed SMUHA week. However, we managed to prepare torches and helmets on Monday and got our photo taken with our school galley today, before we burn it tomorrow.

Just in time for SMUHA, the Children’s Parliament mascot, Max, arrived in the post! We have to show him around our school and community so it’s perfect timing to bring him along tomorrow!

In the afternoon, we made Viking heads using clay. The class practised on Monday using plasticine and explored how to add to the base to make it look 3D and used the different clay tools to add texture and detail. This really helped them create Vikings with lots of character!
To continue being active this week, we took a walk up to the shop to post our World Book Day author letters. We are hoping that, in time, we’ll get some replies! We took a detour on the way back to make our walk a bit longer. Thank you to John and Eilidh’s Mum for joining us. (1 votes, average: 1.00 out of 1) Loading...
Our day today started with Mrs Douglas’ symmetry lesson. The class all concentrated so well on their shapes and patterns. Then it was out into the fresh air to tidy up to the Croft House doing our Redd Up. See the photo of our most unusual find! Then it was reading time followed by a lesson on alliteration. The children made up sentences about their classmates using alliteration and interesting verbs, adjectives and adverbs. After lunch, we recapped on Health & Wellbeing work from last week, relating to naming external body parts. Mrs Douglas made up a fun game that had everybody answering questions and using the correct names. It was a fun and relaxed way to learn. (No Ratings Yet) Loading...
