Our beautiful laminated Unst peerie timetable was found today in a visitors convertible. So we just had to take a picture of it.

Obviously it does add value to the blingest of vehicles.

Help!
There's a mistake on the Unst version of the school's ferry timetable. If you've bought one then please exchange a green one for a corrected Orange version. They should be available by Monday night.
We're sorry - the information we were given was wrong.

Of course the Fetlar one is 100% accurate.

Last Thursday we saw the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise anchored in Tresta Wick. We thought that this was too good an opportunity to miss so we phoned the press office in London to see if either we could visit them or they could visit us.
On Friday they sailed away and we thought that we had missed the boat.

Luckily for us they remembered our request when they returned on Bank Holiday Monday. After lots of frantic phone calls they tracked down our school phone number and we arrange to go across on the rib for a short tour.

The pupils have written their own accounts of this visit and these will appear in a blog shortly. (Our internet connection keeps going.)

It was great though. A different start to a Tuesday morning!

Thanks to Greenpeace for arranging it all at such short notice.

Its a nice day so we went down to the Interpretive Centre to discuss a project between the school and the museum. The weather was beautiful.
On our way down the hill one of the pupils took this picture.

Unfortunately the picture won't load but it is available on the Weather Eye page of the school website. (Its the one with the lamb).

Isn't it nice?

PS Ferry timetable has now raised over 拢300.

We're doing a growing together project with our partners in Baltasound, Unst. As part of this we are investigating stems & root structures.

We've looked at the inside the plant stem.


We're now trying to change these freshly picked daffodils into a lovely shade of blue.

The bairns have been studying how plants function as part of our Growing Together topic. Here's one of their reports:


We took three daffodils and put them in water with blue food colouring added. They should change over time as they take their nutrition.


We put food colouring in water that we gave to the plant.

They quickly started to change colour.

As you can see water with food colouring in it will change colour if fed to the plant. The water goes through the plant's veins and changes its colour.

The plant had absorbed water and changed colour.

When the plant died we cut it open and looked at where it had absorbed water and changed colour. But the seeds in the ovule did not change colour.
