The presents underneath the tree,

Their happiness and their glee,

They will bring to you,

A Christmas wish that might come true.

While the decorations sparkle just like the sky,

The bright stars up so high,

Like the one on top of my tree,

Will sparkle like it has a personality,

Just like the tinsel on my tree.

Baubles scattered everywhere,

Like a crystal flashing on a branch.

As they twirl around so fast,

Santa comes with his sack.

The snow falling out of the sky,

So cold, just at the everlasting darkness of the night,

While the tree so terribly tall,

All the snow starts to fall,

The Christmas tree is so very prickly,

So pretty.

By Ella P6

As round as a snowman,

As bright as fairy lights.

Shiny as ice,

It’s just a beautiful sight.

As blue as the sea,

As bright as a diamond.

Dancing with the lights,

It’s just a wonderful sight.

As glittery as sequins on a pencilcase.

As light as fairy dust.

As rare as red stone,

As the children argued who would place it on a tree.

As the family gathered around the tree

and started to sing Christmas carols,

As the light dances with me.

I am the bauble,

Come and put me on the glistening tree.

By Brenna P7

As I hung my fluffy stocking by the roaring fire,

I got excited to see what Santa himself would bring.

As the fire died down and I was getting tired,

I laid down the brandy, the carrot and the pie.

As I hoped my stocking would be full,

I crossed my fingers tight

I shouted good night.

As my stocking hung all day and night

I got a huge fright.

I heard Rudolph prancing his feet on the tile roof,

Dancing, prancing,

With his little foot.

As I woke up at the crack of dawn

I sprinted downstairs and you’ll never believe

What I received!

My little stocking was full!

S.T.E.M

On Tuesday the 5^th of November we did S.T.E.M workshop. We were learning about space junk and how it expands through the years. We were programming robots to make them orbit around the world. Our favourite part was when we tried to make the robot pick up the space junk. It was our favourite part because it was a little bit challenging and fun. We could have improved on some things like trying to get the robots arm up and down. Some parts were funny because we could not get it to do things.

By Megan and Ruby

On the 2^nd of October 2019 Emma Chittick came up to Whalsay School to do a stem workshop with us. We had the choice of building a land yacht out of Lego or to build and programme a robot, we chose the land yacht.

We had to think about making the yacht stable and making sure the sail was facing the wind so it could take in as much wind as possible.

It didn’t work the first time because the sail wasn’t facing the right way so it didn’t move. We took it back to our desk and adjusted it but it still wouldn’t work because our sail wasn’t in the right place.

When we went back to alter it we just started again because it was just a fail at this point. When we started again we built the structure a little bit different.

When it came to the time to race then everybody had a chance to show everyone what they have done. Our one was the most messy and smallest, it was just falling apart but when we placed it in front of the fan then ours surprisingly went to furthest.

We enjoyed working together because we communicated a lot with each other. We also liked the problem solving and building. We both thought it was very fun too.

On the 2^nd of October Emma Chittick came up to Whalsay p6/7 to make land yachts and Robots with Lego and mini sails, we made a Lego yacht and we had a race to see who could go the farthest and we came second. We made two lego characters to go on our land yacht and their names were Bettie (she is a girl) and Jim (he is a boy).  We had lots of fun and you needed to use maths and engineering but you never realised you were doing maths. We got it to move the first time but not very far so we moved the sail around the back and we got it to move farther but not very fast so we took of weight and put on another sail. The sail had to be big or it didn’t move very far. We had lots of fun and we would love to do it again and you also did lots of teamwork and everybody had fun.  By Andy and Tom
