P3B 2023-24

We finished the block creating our own Shetland dances.  From the 9 dances we had learnt we had to think about some of the actions and positions we had done to create our own dance.  We also had to remember that a Shetland dance is just a small section that we repeat.

Here we are performing our creations.

Tuesday 30^th January 2024 was a special day at Sound Primary School as we were visited by both the Junior and Senior Jarl Squads of 2024.

The Junior Jarl Squad, led by Guizer Jarl Skeppare Nokkvesson (aka Oran McCulloch), were in fine voice during their time with us, supported by a group of young local musicians who did a brilliant job. ‘Yes Sir, I can Boogie’ was definitely a highlight! The clip below shows all the pupils from p1 to p7 joining in with the Up Helly Aa song.

The Senior Jarl Squad, led by Guizer Jarl King Harald Olafsson (aka Richard Moar) were also pretty spectacular both in sight and sound. A fantastic line up of local musicians provided the music for the Up Helly Aa song and also their squad song which made us all want to get up and dance! Here is a clip of all the pupils from p1 to p7 joining in with the Up Helly Aa song. The Jarl commented how loud and enthusiastic our singing was. High praise indeed from a ‘King’!

We started a Shetland and Scottish dance block this week in PE.  In our first lesson we did circle based dances, the Circassian Circle, the Norsk Polka and The Ferry Boat.  We explained that this kind of dance takes the format of small sequences of actions which are repeated for the length of the music.

Here are our first attempts of the Circassian Circle and Norsk Polka.
