What creative and artistic children we have here in Fair Isle Primary School. Over the last few weeks with Jonathan, we have been busy creating new designs for our cards that are sold when cruise ships visit in the spring and summer. As well as the classic “Puffin in Fair Isle Knitwear” design that has become somewhat of a tradition, we also had some terrific landscape drawings of famous Fair Isle views.

In Fiona’s art lessons, we have been studying traditional Inuit artwork. Fiona’s mother once worked amongst Inuit communities as a nurse so we used her artefacts and the belongings she had passed down as a basis to create some lovely pieces together and individually, including a magnificent owl piece. Please do have a look at these pictures.

Who knows? We may see you at a cruise ship visit later this year…
