Discovering Colour and exploring art materials

The children have made their names using different colours and chosen which colours they want to explore mixing together. They have also made colourful paths of colour anc drawn themselves on the path- some children drew their whole family.

The next art activity uses drawing, cutting, colouring and collage skills.

I will post some their beautiful explorations next week.

Shetland Youth Orchestra Performance

We were treated to a performance by the Shetland Youth Orchestra last week in the Sound Hall. The orchestra is made up of children from all over Shetland including both primary and secondary, and their musical talents are amazing!

We were introduced to all the different instrument families including brass, woodwind, strings and percussion. We listened to a mixture of music including classical, swing and even a theme tune or too. We particularly liked the Wallace and Grommit theme tune which they played as we were leaving the hall.

What a very enjoyable way to spend a Friday afternoon!
