What a perfect start to World Book Day. P2/3/4 and P6/7 partnered up to read together. Everyone had brought in their favourite book and in pairs / threes, sat together to share their books. It was lovely to see everyone listening and reading so well

Unfortunately the weather was against us this year, so we had to cancel our RSPB Schools Birdwatch. Instead Kevin Kelly came to explain to us the way that the information is used by the RSPB and the sort of birds that we are likely to see in Shetland.
After that we had an afternoon of finding out about owls. We learnt about how they live and what they eat by looking at a range of owl pellets. We had Short and Long eared owl pellets and Snowy and Barn owl too. It meant that we could compare each species.
We found lots of rats, mice, voles, birds etc in the pellets and lots of bones.

On 10th February, Miss Clark had her final day of her 5 week practice with the P6/7 class. She did a super Viking project with them and everyone has written a super Viking saga and helped to make this lovely class display (1 votes, average: 1.00 out of 1)Loading...
This afternoon we had a fantastic time watching Disgusting Digestion, the story of food. It really was disgusting and poor Miss Clark had to hold her hands out at the end to catch the final product!!!
After that we were able to try out a huge range of science activities called Body Works. It was really good fun to have a go at them all. (1 votes, average: 1.00 out of 1)Loading...
Today Jenny came in to teach us a very old traditional ballad and them we got back to the straw hats.
We had to knot them in a row and then we joined it to make our hats. (3 votes, average: 1.00 out of 1)Loading...

We had a super morning with Jenny Sturgeon and Roseanne Watt, who are coming into school for four weeks to do a dialect / Shetland history project with us. Jenny started by singing a song for us and Roseanne recited a poem.
We did two activities, firstly we learnt a dialect song about spinning and then we started to make our skekler hats. We will finish them next week. (2 votes, average: 1.00 out of 1)Loading...
It has been so lovely to see everyone back. What a great start to the year.
We are starting to get ready for the RSPB birdwatch, so this afternoon while the pupil council were out, the rest of us made bird feeders.
We used up the old pine cones from Christmas and learnt to tie a reef knot, so that we’ll be able to hang them from the trees. Next we made a delicious 🤢 mixture of lard, cheese, grains, nuts and sultanas and moulded it onto the cones. We will harden them up in the fridge and hang them out next week.

We just couldn’t resist a run around in the first snow of the winter last week. Little did we know…

We had a lovely afternoon looking at how seeds use the wind to disperse. We looked at Ash, Sycamore and Plane keys and Spruce and pine seeds and then everyone had a go at making their own. Everyone agreed that Archie’s was the coolest, it was tiny and rotated so fast!
