Every year we have a Christmas party for all the senior citizens in North Roe & Lochend. They are invited to the school for the afternoon. We have tea and homebakes, the children sing and then we all play some Christmas games. Thank-you to everyone who came, we hope you had a fun afternoon! 🙂

The bairns have been working really hard to prepare for the craft fair this year. They have been decorating plant pots using stencils and porcelain pens and paint. Their fine motor skills have been put to the test! It’s been really tricky but they have got neater and neater with each pot they have painted. Well done to all the bairns for your patience! 🙂
The bairns will be selling their flower pots at the Christmas Craft Fair this weekend at the Clickimin, open:

Our latest enterprise project is very exciting! We have been working with Nort Energy to create an ‘undercover gardening’ book. The bairns have been interviewing local people who have polycrubs to get their top tips! Thank-you so much to Susan, Leslie, Maree, Leslie and Janetta for letting us visit your polycrubs and interview you. We all had such a great time and thanks to Susan and Leslie for baking us yummy sunflower cupcakes!

Friday was ‘wear blue day’ so we all wore blue to show that we will stand up to bullying! This week is anti-bullying week so we have an activity each day to learn about what bullying is, the effects of bullying and what we can do to stop it.

Our first enterprise cafe was a success! The children worked so hard and really enjoyed it. Thank-you to all our customers who came and for being so generous. The children were delighted when they got to divide up the tips and take their well deserved cash home! 🙂 Here are some pictures of our head chef, sous chef, kitchen assistants, cafe manager, waiters and waitresses working hard!

We got to see one of the SIC’s new gritters. We were learning how the gritter drivers keep the Shetland roads safe when there is snow and ice. They do a very important job!

Every morning, we start the school day with ‘everyone reading in class’ (ERIC time). We want the children at North Roe School to read for enjoyment and love reading! The children get to choose their own book from the library, we read for 15 minutes. Here is Pyter enjoying listening to a story on the ipad.

Our STEM ambassador Duane came into school to teach us about forces and thrust. We made rocket balloons and tested them out to help us understand how thrust works. It was so much fun, we had to think of different ideas as to how we could make our rocket balloons travel even further.

We have been learning about life cycles. We put 12 hens eggs in an incubator and patiently waited… we were so happy when 8 out of the 12 eggs hatched. We loved getting to take care of and hold our 8 little chicks. They’re so cute!

We have been learning about chemical reactions. We added mentos to coke and diet coke and observed the chemical reaction. We recorded our results and compared our hypothesis with our conclusion.
