Active Schools Transition Activity Day Tuesday 19 March 2024

Yesterday, P7s from Scalloway, Hamnavoe, Whiteness, Tingwall and Nesting schools all came together in the Scalloway Games Hall to get to know each other a little before they move to the AHS.

Active Schools organised 4 activities which everyone got to try.

  • Basketball
  • Rugby
  • Boccia
  • Dodgeball

Our class had a great time and all managed to say hi to some new people.

Thank you to Active Schools for organising the day.

STEM Challenge – Build a Highland Blackhouse

Primary 7 have had a busy two weeks building blackhouses from balsa wood.

Many skills have been worked on including measuring, building, listening, cooperating and evaluating.  It’s been a very worthwhile task to fit in with our topic of “The Highland Clearances.”  The class evaluation reports are worth reading and will be on show (along with the Blackhouses) on our Learning Walk on March 14.

We look forward to seeing you there!
