Pupils from S1 – S4 benefitted from a hugely informative and important workshop today delivered by colleagues from NHS Shetland. Learning focused on what we can do in the event of a member of the public has a cardiac arrest.
Pupils heard real life stories and statistics from across the health service as well as learning the practical skills of how to properly do chest compressions and use a defibrillator.

Back in May the S4 Biologists set one tattie while studying plant propagation. We put it in a bucket and set it outside to grow. We have checked on it through the year and observed the plant going through all the stages, including flowering.
On the 9 October, on the eve of “Tattie Picking Week” we harvested our tatties.
“ How many tatties do you get fuy a tattie” was the question and there was a prize for the nearest correct answer.
This year’s winner was Alice Irvine who guessed exactly right – 15 tatties. Well done Alice. She gets to take the tatties home and cook them with a little rosemary from the polytunnel.
