We enjoyed a visit from the NGUHA squad today. Mrs Forsyth and P1/2 had created a quiz for the Guizer Jarl and we all enjoyed a Boston Two Step to finish off the visit.
Today pupils from Early Years to Primary 7 came together for a whole school dance following 3 weeks of traditional dance practice with Maria Leask.
The atmosphere was super, with all children and staff on the dance floor.
Thank you Mr Kirkness for organising our Sports Day, all pupils had a great morning.
Final scores were:
We had a lovely school dinner today to celebrate the Jubilee.
The Polycrub is back in use. Mrs Forsyth has been busy this week getting all pupils in to plant out seeds.
Lots of bruck cleared from the local area this week, thanks to pupils and staff.
Shetland Islands Council is planning to ask all pupils in P5 to S6 to take part in a survey about their health and wellbeing. The findings will help Shetland Islands Council to understand the needs, strengths and possible concerns of children and young people, which will help plan future improvements to local services. Parents will receive a letter providing more detailed information about the Census, and the opportunity to let us know if they do not wish for their child to take part.

We had our snack outside this week- this was instead of our coffee morning we usually have in October. We decorated our zones with bunting and rainbows because we wanted to say thank you to the NHS and raise some money for them.
Primary 3/4 presented our assembly last week. It was great to see what they have been learning about in class and share with the rest of the school how they are doing it.
It was lovely to meet the children who are moving into Primary 1 after the holidays.
Activities were all based in the outdoor area and it was so lovely to see the bairns playing so happily together. It was also a great opportunity to meet all the parents.
They explored the wildlife garden and were delighted to meet our resident frog who was quite happy to be admired.
All the children received the book ‘Bobby and the Burland Pearls’ which we read out at the Learning Logs.
The children had 4 sessions at the school and the weather was amazing so we were very lucky. They got to toast marshmallow on the Firepit, play games, sing songs and do some craft activities on the third session.
The final session was all about having fun, saying goodbye to the Early Years Staff a little farewell party.
