East Linton’s Yellow Woods Challenge

One of the Enterprising tasks we have undertaken as a whole school this session has been the Yellow Woods Challenge. We had to collect as many copies of last year’s Yellow Pages as possible and make a sculpture out of them. As a school, from nursery to P7 and with the help of parents, carers and friends of the school we managed to collect in excess of 600 copies. Fantastic for a school whose combined roll is only 199! The Yellow Pages were then sent off for re-cycling. The Primary 3 and Primary 4 classes along with Miss Donaldson (P3 teacher) and Mrs Yule (Classroom Asst) made a fabulous sculpture of a seahorse that was so big it had to be built in our gym hall. We took digital photos and a movie of it for you to enjoy. We won first prize last year with our teddy bear, we hope we match that success.

Hot News: We just heard that we won first prize of £100 again for the seahorse sculpture and a very creditable fourth in  quantity. Well done to Athelstaneford for being worthy overall winners!
