We are very pleased to announce that the Urafirth School coffee afternoon has raised £750 and still counting! A massive thanks to all the people who came out in the terrible weather to support this cause and of course to all the people who baked and contributed raffles and crafts for the sales table. It is great to see the generosity of folks for this worthwhile charity.
We have been using some of our Pupil Equity Funding money to purchase new ICT equipment. The P4 – 7 class are testing the new Chromebooks and headphones.
The three North Mainland schools met up at Urafirth Primary for an action packed sports day. The weather was amazing and everybody had a fantastic time, all the pupils received a medal at the end of the day.
The whole school got together this morning to celebrate World Book Day. There were some amazing outfits and everybody enjoyed sharing their favourite books. The primary pupils read stories to the nursery pupils and Miss Laurenson read The very Hungry Caterpillar in full costume!
Some pictures for our super Up Helly Aa day.
We have been speaking about internet safety and the latest nasty craze to sweep the internet. Here is an information poster to help parents understand and help children steer clear of such sites.
Newsletters for the Primary and Early Years Departments attached. Please give us a phone or pop in if you have any queries.
Santie’s robin arrived in P1-4 today with a letter from Mrs Claus. She had a problem and needed the bairns to help. A naughty elf had stolen Santie’s favourite vegetable, brussels sprouts, which meant he was going to be without them for his Christmas dinner!!!!
Mrs Claus asked the bairns if they could please look around the school to see if any had been hidden here. As you can see, we found quite a few!!!
Here are some more photos from our Mareel and Museum trip this term. Great excitement on the bus on the way to Lerwick.
We had our lunch at the Museum then we all got scavenger hunt sheets to explore the Museum. Some of us were looking for pictures of Vikings, and some of us were looking for items beginning with different letters.
Pupils and staff have had a super time celebrating the run up to Christmas. The Early Years Department held a fantastic concert with teas and games afterwards. Later on the same day the Primary Department treated parents and members of the community to ‘Hansel and Gretel’. The audience showed their appreciation by laughing at the ‘gags’. The show was followed by some fiddle playing and carol singing from our very talented pupils.
Members of the community kindly came in to show all the pupils how to make Christingles and other Christmas crafts. It was great to host this event in the school and thanks again to all involved.
