Christmas Party

Today we were really excited because it was our Christmas party and we were hoping to have a visit from a very busy, special person.  

We all made special hats for the party

It was fun playing with the balloons until the games started

We played The Farmer's in his Den and Corners

Time for ice cream and juice

I scream for ice cream

Do you hear the sound of jingle bells?

Thank you very much Santa

At the Library

On Wednesday afternoon we were due to go to the Kirkwall Library but the weather suddenly took a turn for the worst and we thought that we would have to cancel.  Thank you to Mr Mowat who came to our rescue and bussed us all there and back.

It's great to find a nice quiet place in the library to enjoy looking at a good book

Wow!  What a lot of books.

I see that you've found a lovely comfy place to read your book.

Betty let us have a look in her huge mobile van.  It's packed with  dozens of books  and it goes to some of the other islands so that the people who live there can get books to read too.

We never expected to find moths in the library!  There was a huge collection of them hiding in a cupboard upstairs.

Before it was time to leave and face the weather again we had the chance to make some decorations for the library tree.  It was fun and we had a super day.  

Happy Birthday Mrs Pettet!

Today is Mrs Pettet's Special Birthday!

We surprised her with a Happy Birthday performance and a birthday cake. Ms Dennison asked her to come to a meeting so we could get our class ready for her.

She got a big surprise to find us with our party hats on when she came back!

SURPRISE!!!!!!!!!!

We spelled out HAPPY BIRTHDAY using our jolly phonics and we sang the Happy Birthday song. Then Mrs Pettet puffed oot the candles on her cake.
                                                                     

Happy Birthday to you......

Hope you made a wish Mrs Pettet?



Hip, Hip, Hooray



Congratulations Mrs Pettet, we really hope you enjoyed your birthday surprise.
