Super snow stories

🌨️SNOW DAY❄️ by Merryn

“ITS FREEZING!!” screamed Nell,
“What did you expect running in the snow without a jacket on?” Eva said rolling her eyes. She was right though it was freezing. The snowflakes fell quickly on the ground piling up against the windows and doors and it was one of Nell’s not so brilliant idea to go out the moment Eva got up. Nell had gone out so early and so suddenly that she still had her pyjamas on. Eva couldn’t feel her nose and her toes were going numb, “Come on Nell please can we go inside its cold,” she whined
“UGH Eva you are sooo boring come on loosen up!!” Nell didn’t listen to Eva’s moans and kept digging in the 4 inch snow.

About ten minutes later Nell gave in and went inside to have some hot chocolate which Eva said was more cream and marshmallows than actual hot chocolate. “Can we go out again please!?” Begged Nell
“NOOO” screeched Eva ,
“oh Eva just go” their mother told her. Properly bundled up now Nell went back to digging in the snow ,”what are you doing now?” Whined Eva
“I am making an igloo” Nell replied as if this was the most obvious thing in the world.
Half an hour later they were in the igloo and it wasn’t so cold in there, “What now?” Yawned Eva sleepily,
“Let’s go inside” Nell said because their noses were turning rosey pink.

Then they went in for some cheese and pickle sandwiches and a big banana milkshake each,
“did you have fun girls?” Mum asked them
“Yeah I suppose,” Eva said
“Yeah definitely!” Nell exclaimed.
Out they went again this time making a very large snowman and named him Jeff (courtesy of Nell).
“Can we go back in the igloo please Nell?” Eva asked rubbing her hands together
“ Yes please” replied Nell rosy-faced. It was toasty in there and Nell almost fell asleep, “ GIRLS COME INSIDE THERES GOING TO BE A SNOWSTORM” their mum called out of the window; they ran as fast as they could and got inside just as the storm started. After hanging up their coats, hats and gloves
They scrambled to the couch and snuggled up in big cozy blankets to have their tea and watch a movie. Afterwards Nell got out a board game and they spent an hour playing that (Eva won.) Then Nell fell asleep on the couch so their mum carried her to her room while she was doing that Eva walked over to the window and could’ve sworn the snowman twitched his sticky arm Eva shook her head making her long brown hair fall over her eyes, that can’t be right she thought and went to bed

THE END

Measuring up in Maths!

As part of maths, P2-4 have been learning about measure. Mrs Cheyney showed the class how to measure themselves to make their own waistcoats. P2-4 worked really well together helping each other to get the measurements they needed. It was a great practical example of how important learning to measure accurately is. Well done P2-4!

World Book Day 2023

Ollaberry Primary School celebrated World Book Day on Thursday 2nd March.

There were lots of great costumes from much loved books. Pupils wrote their own short stories, creating a library of mini books! We also enjoyed reading and listening to books, inside and outside as it was a beautiful day.

Pupils enjoyed some music outside in the sunshine too.

Northmavine Up-Helly-Aa 2023

Pupils, Parents and Staff of Ollaberry Primary School were delighted to welcome Jarl Sigurd ‘Snake in the eye’ and his squad into school on Friday 17th February.

It was fantastic to celebrate Northmavine Up-Helly-Aa again. Pupils had great fun making their own shields, helmets and weapons, creating a display for the school and painting shields for the galley. The pupils were delighted to sing a song for the Jarl Squad too.
