Shapinsay School

Well done everyone (and especially to Pupil Council). We raised £175.10 for Children in Need. Pupil Council ran a stall all week, with lots of Children in Need things to buy. On Monday Pudsey came in to visit, and on Friday we all wore Patterns or Pyjamas to school.

We are in the process of reviewing our anti bullying policy. Please take a look at it using this link (scroll to the policies part and it is listed as Anti Bullying Policy draft) and let us know if you have any thoughts. We will hopefully finalise it at the next Parent Council meeting.

We are delighted - we got our Gold School Sports Award. Well done everyone!

We were even featured on Radio Orkney - click here to listen.

Welcome back everyone! We have had a good start to the term so far, with a visit from Alastair Carmichael MP for the P1 - 3 pupils and swimming and visiting the library for P4 - 7.

We went to Sandgarth Beach in Shapinsay to collect rubbish that's been washed up, or "bag the bruck". We collected 11 bags of rubbish, 2 creels, a tyre and a really long pipe!

We met with children from Rousay, Eday and North Walls to play Rugby with the Active Schools and Rugby coaches. It was great and we made new friends too.

We had a ballet lesson from the Scottish Ballet team. It was great! Some adults even had their own lesson in the afternoon.

Mike from the RNLI came in to talk to us and the Lunch Club about the RNLI. It was really interesting!

Well done P7, a fantastic effort to do lots of extra sporting activities for Sport Relief!

Thank you to everyone who came along to see the panto, and a huge WELL DONE to everyone involved. It was fantastic!
