On the 20th of March was Jake’s last day so Mrs Hay threw a small party.
We had some snacks and cake and we sat around and talked for a bit.
Then we played some party games! We played Corners using Jake’s family names and we played Wink Murder. Our class was sad to see him go and we hope he enjoyed his last day. We wish home the best of luck in Brunei!

Primary 7 Jarl Squad- ready for the big day!
Michaela- The Jarl……enjoying every minute of the celebrations.
Michaela commented, “SMUHA is one of the best days of the year and having the honour of being the Jarl makes it even better.”
Today is SMUHA and I was part of our school Jarl Squad. First of all we came into school and got into costume, and got our helmets and cloaks. Then we headed outside and it was very cold but I soon warmed up. As we were walking to the football pitch everyone started singing the Up Helly Aa song and The Galley Song, over and over again, until we got there. (My throat was very sore!) After that everyone threw their torches into the galley. We watched it burn for a little while and then went over to the Boddam Hall for snack and to do our acts.
Our act was called The Axe Factor. After all the practising it turned out really good! It was a brilliant day but it was hard keeping it a secret. Written by Emily
Today was SMUHA 2018. I was in the P7 Jarl Squad. It was a very good experience. At 09:15 we left to go to the Boddam football pitch where we burned the galley, which was named Lia after Lena, lsaiah and Alex. Then we went into Boddam Hall to do the acts and to wait for the real 2018 Jarl Squad to come. The Squad acts were very good. I especially liked the one about the teacher disco. For our Squad act it was The Axe Factor. After the act a lot of people (mainly P5/6 boys) said, “The cringe crew should have won!” But it doesn’t really matter.
When the real Jarl Squad came it was really good and they could sing so loud! After all that we went out to see the big galley. Then we went back to school. All in all it was an amazing day; the costumes, act and everything else in between. I also enjoyed all the support, from, what they called themselves, ‘No 1 Cringe Crew fans’. SMUHA was amazing and I would love to do it again. By Ciaran
Carys said, “ It was a great day, I loved it. I really liked seeing the big Jarl Squad and I’ve got a sore throat from all the singing!”
”It was really great fun. I would do it all again. Michaela was a really good Jarl.” (Niamh)
Emmy commented, “I really enjoyed the Squad acts and it was worth the wait.”
”It was amazing and I would love to do it all again,” said Ayla.
”I really enjoyed walking down to the pitch. Everyone was singing and cheering as loud as they could,” said Lauryn.
”It was amazing. I really enjoyed seeing the big a Jarl Squad and their galley.” (Lily-Jane)
