These are our posters to tell Mrs Williamson all about us, what we like to do and about our school. They are now up and displayed in the P6/7 activity area. They look great and show what a range of interests and skills we have. They all show how proud we are of our Eco-flags and the work we do in school.
On Friday afternoon Matthew Smith, a volunteer from the RSPB came to help us with our hour of birdwatching. We took it in turns to go out in groups, while the rest of the class made fatballs to feed the birds and did some drawings of some of the birds that we are likely to see from the classroom.
We have started to see quite a few species, since we have been putting feed out. We also saw a lot of waders starting to come through after all the wind this week. We’ve all seen redshank, curlew and oystercatchers and we’re learning to identify a few of the gull species too. There are always lots of starlings around and house sparrows and a robin came to feed a couple of weeks ago.
Ms Scanlan is going to upload the species that we saw onto the RSPB website.
We had our fourth Wider Achievement afternoon today and we put out our bird feeders, ready for next week’s RSPB birdwatch. They’ll certainly have plenty to eat!
Last week, Hugh Harrop, director of Shetland Wildlife, gave our school a pair of binoculars and a copy of the new photographic bird field guide ‘ Britain’s Birds ‘. These will be really useful during our Big Schools Birdwatch, thank you very much, we’ll let you know what we see!
