We had a visit from the Scalloway Fire Station this week. We learnt about all the different apperatus used in the event of a fire. We all found it really interesting and we especially enjoyed pressing the button for the siren and having a shot of the hose! We all got soaked!

Book Week
We were lucky enough to see two authors last week during book week. We went on a trip to the museum to see Shoo Rayner, author of the Vik the Viking books and we also had a visit from Debi Gliori. We heard a little bit about what inspired them to write some of their books before they read us a story.
We also learnt how to draw a Viking and a penguin!
All the pupils really enjoyed our visits and liked listening to the stories!
French
Bonjour!
We have been learning some French in our class. The primary 5’s from the P567 class joined us for a session.
We have been learning how to say ‘hello’ and ‘how are you?’.
In French you would say ‘Bonjour’ and ‘Ca va?’.
We have also learnt how to play Heads Down, Thumbs Up in French and we are slowly learning all the phrases.
We are really enjoying it!
Tesco – Farm to Fork
We went on a trip to Tesco, it was called Farm to Fork. First we met a lady called Mandy who told us what we would be doing. We had a look around the fruit and veg aisle and then had to write down a fruit and vegetable for every colour of the rainbow. We also had a look at the cheese counter and had to remember the different cheeses that we were going to try. We tried 5 counties cheese which had Red Leicester, Double Gloucester, Derby, Somerset Cheddar and Cheshire in it and we also got to try Edam. We also got to make our own wraps and had a lot of different ingredients to try. We got to try a frittata that had goats cheese and cheddar in it. Some of us enjoyed it but lots of us didn’t.
We had a really good time at Tesco and we would love to go again!
Drama
Izzy Swanson has been coming in to the class to do some drama with us. We have been playing different games. In one game we had to create a picture using actions. One person had to leave the room and try and guess what picture we had made by asking us questions. We also learnt that using different tones of voice and expression could change the way a sentence was said.
We are really enjoying Izzy coming in to our class!
