Wednesday 8th<\/sup> May<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Last week we went on a school trip for a few days, which was very exciting, especially as the Foula kids were staying at the hostel with us.<\/p>\n

When everyone arrived at the hostel, we dropped our bags off and then went to Clickimin because they were cleaning the rooms for us. Before the Foula children arrived, all of us went to the sensory rooms before lunch. The rooms had lots of touch panels, lights and comfy chairs! When we came in, they showed us all the different buttons for changing the light colours of the different panels and bubble tube. There was an infinity tunnel; a screen that if you touched it, had patterns or lights and music! My favourite was the bubble tube, which you could hear if you put your ear to it.<\/p>\n

Afterwards, we went for lunch near the caf\u00e9 shortly followed by a swimming lesson with Foula too! Later in the afternoon, the oldest child at Foula (called Elma) and I were going on a tour of the Anderson High school. Before then everyone went to the playground for a play; that play park is my favourite one because there is a zip line and loads of swings! Before we knew it, Elma and I had to head to go to the Anderson with Alison the Foula teacher and Hamnavoe P7s too. \u00a0The tour was really interesting and the shade of orange changes for every floor and there are lots of signs so it\u2019s very hard to get lost. Afterwards, we walked back to the hostel (in what was now the pouring rain) for a delicious dinner of sausage and mash.<\/p>\n

In the evening Elma, Sam and I went for free swim! We played sharks in the rapids until closing time. Everyone else went for a rainy walk around Clickimin loch for some fresh air.<\/p>\n

After breakfast, we all went to Montfield Dentist. The dental nurse checked our teeth and coated them with fluoride varnish. We also learned how to brush our teeth properly.\u00a0 We had to brush pretend teeth to make sure all the bits were away. The only way you could see the bits was with an ultraviolet torch so we had to keep checking.\u00a0 We also saw how much sugar was in different snacks.\u00a0 We had to put teaspoons of sugar in a bowl to see!<\/p>\n

After that we went for another swimming lesson at Clickimin with the Foula kids.\u00a0 We had to swim with a woggle or a float and we got to go down the flumes.\u00a0 Ander went down the flumes for the first time!<\/p>\n

Hollie, Harris and I had to rush to Tingwall for our flight but P1 and P7 had to stay to see the school nurse.\u00a0 We waited at Tingwall for 3 hours because there was fog over Fair Isle!\u00a0 It was very boring and I watched the same weather forecast 4 times! The others got to go to Harry\u2019s but luckily Ander and Heidi bought toys for me and Harris. The fog went away just in time for us all to get home.<\/p>\n

When we were on the school trip, I took my Deep End Test at the Clickimin.\u00a0Firstly,\u00a0you\u00a0had to\u00a0jump in to the pool and then you had to do front crawl for a length.\u00a0After\u00a0that,\u00a0you had to do back crawl for most of a\u00a0length.\u00a0Finally\u00a0you had to float in the shape of a star on your back and then on your front and tread water.\u00a0 Then Sally told me I had passed. This\u00a0means\u00a0I can go in the very deep end now.<\/p>\n
