Up Helly Aa 2024

What a day!

The class have had a great time preparing for Up Helly Aa. We made shields and helmets. We have set up our own Sound School Galley Shed in the infant wing which includes dressing up, axe designs, helmet making, galley building, torch making, art activities and a workbench with real tools.

We enjoyed the day which included a walk to the Clickimin to see the Junior galley and presentations in the gym hall to both the junior squad and senior squad. We got a very quick chance to hold their shields and try their helmets before the vikings had to leave again.

Thank you to all the parent helpers who came on our trip. It was great to have you.  Thank you to the squads who came to visit. It was a very special and exciting day for everyone.

Curriculum Information P2A Term 3

Dance

We have started the new term in PE with a dance block.  We follow a scheme of work which involves a lot of movement both travelling and on the spot.  We look at a lot of contrasting ways like lively and gentle and fast and slow.  We also include counting, stopping and starting at the right time, changing direction, using the space well, creativity and imagination.

In our first lesson one of the activities was a follow the leader travel contrasting with a stopping waving and clapping sequence.  Here we are in action.
