Fruit Pots
Thankyou to the Health Committee for organising Fruit Pots to sell at school today.
World Book Day
There was lots of excitement as pupils came to school dressed as characters, or in their pyjamas, for World Book Day.
Nesting and Girlsta Up Helly Aa
The Jarl and his squad came to visit everyone at the school. Primary 3/4 prepared a game full of challenges, games and questions to play with the Jarl. There was a swapping of gifts which was followed with a Boston Two Step danced by Pupils, Vikings, parents, friends and staff.
School Dance
We had a lovely morning doing traditional Shetland dances taught by Maria Leask over the past few weeks.
The last dance was a Grand March led by Abigail and Jack.
Christmas Jumper Day
Pupils wore Christmas Jumpers and raised a fantastic £107.68 for Save the Children.
Primary 3/4 judged a Christmas jumper design competition and here are the winning entries from each class.
Christmas Dinner
Thankyou to our amazing cooks who served up a fantastic Christmas Dinner on Wednesday.
It was delicious.
Anti- Bullying Poem Winners
Last week the Health Committee asked the classes to write poems about anti-bullying.
They judged the entries and selected one winner from each class.
Here are our winning writers with their certificates which the Health Committee presented them with in assembly. Bobby Anderson was then judged as overall winner with his poem called ‘Bullying is not Good’.
The winning poems will be on display during next weeks parents appointments.
Pudsey Bear visits Whiteness
P1/2 have been baking and we all wore our pyjamas or spots today to take part in Children In Need. We have raised an amzing £155.20 with a few more pennies to count that came in late.
Thank you to everyone for your support.
Wear Blue Day
In assembly we thought about “Just Be You, Wear Blue” and how we can stop bullying behaviours in school.
We all voted on the order of the next three things we would like to do in school to help stop bullying behaviours and support each other if we feel sad or excluded.
