UHA 2024

Tuesday 30th 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’!

Also, have some fun building something in the snow today… doesn’t have to be a snowman! I’d love to see some photos of what you’ve made.

Snow Day Tuesday, 16th January

Good Morning, P6! What a snowy day! Ollie, Willow and Lolly have all found cosy spots indoors and are happily snoozing away. They don’t like the cold snow on their paws! 🐾
Please click on the link below to see today’s Home Learning Grid. Again, there are two assignments for you to complete. I know that some of you had difficulty opening documents yesterday so I have made some changes today. You should all be able to type your answers into the Class Notebook pages that are attached to your Assignments. Remember, any questions, please just get in touch. Stay cosy! ❄️

Art Lesson

In art P6 have been painting.

We have been learning how to mix various tints and shades of blue to create these beautiful wintery pictures.  Once the sky was complete we painted our snowman, to which added lots of lovely details.  The final step was learning how to add shadows to help make it look three dimensional.

Excellent work P6 😊
