Outdoor Fun at Kirkabister for 7B

It was the start of the morning everyone was pleased because it was the day of outdoor education. Everyone was screaming with joy. The next thing they all knew was that it was time to go. All the children got on to mini buses, a red and a blue bus.
Then the children went to the stores to get some gear on like life jackets, helmets and a wetsuit. There were two men and one lady. Then it was time to get on the bus to Nesting .
When everybody got to Nesting each person had a bit to eat then everyone went through a field of sheep. Then everybody got into the sea, it was so cold. Everyone was like an otter and most people jumped in with a big splash.
Every one swam to Lucky’s cave then all of us had lunch at the beach and heard a story about Lucky’s Cave. The story was all about a sheep called Lucky because one day a sheep was told don’t go near the edge of the cliff but the sheep did not listen to his mum and he fell of the cliff and swam to a rock and faced to a wall and knew it was death but then Pete came along to save the sheep. He was saved and it was a wonderful story. Then we went into a cave, it was dark but no one was scared. Thankfully then we got out for lunch. We had to walk a little but then everyone got lunch, it was good. Next we had to go back to the stores to take off the wet suit, shoes and the helmet. It took a bit of effort to get it off but in the end we did and went back to school.

The day had been good and everyone learnt something new. We all had the best adventure in the world the end.

Screenplay

P7b recently attended the Screenplay festival at Mareel. We spent the morning watching the Eagle Huntress. The documentary was about a 13 year old girl who had to face many obstacles in order to become an eagle hunter in Mongolia.

Afterwards we were given the chance to participate in a workshop focussing on gender equality.

Syrian Bake Sale

P7 had a bake sale for the Syrian Refugees. They were really concerned and wanted to help. Emma even phoned the Shetland Times to see if they would come and take pictures, but they didn’t put them in the newspaper *sad face.*

They raised a grand total of £352 and are very proud to say so. They put the money to Unicef.
