At the end of last term P5-7 had a Victorian Afternoon. Pupils dressed up as Victorian children and Izzy came in to act the role of the Victorian schoolteacher and give them a taster of a school day Victorian style. The children really enjoyed the experience and it was a fine way to finish off our topic on the Victorians.

As part of our topic this term we are comparing and contrasting Spain with Shetland. We have been learning about the Castanet and its use in flamenco dancing. Take a look at our homemade attempts!

We have been using Magformers to create everything from houses to helicopters. The boys even made a working robot!
During the past two weeks we have been looking at story telling and focusing on Jack Foretells the Future where a young man appears to tell the future of a hapless farmer. We are making the story our own by creating a puppet show for the whole class based on what we’ve been learning. Others have been using the story as inspiration for their own creations.
