The squad joined in with dancing, a game of What\u2019s the Time, Mr Wolf?, construction challenges, and plenty of photo opportunities. They also helped carry out some World Book Day presentations, which the pupils really enjoyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a fantastic visit and the bairns loved having them in the school. We hope Liam and his squad had a tremendous weekend and thank them for taking the time to come and see us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please have a look through some of the photos below from their visit. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"16\" width=\"16\" alt=\"&#x1f525;\" src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t50\/1\/16\/1f525.png\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9-500x281.png 500w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9-1536x863.png 1536w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-9.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"666\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10-666x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10-666x1024.png 666w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10-195x300.png 195w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10-768x1182.png 768w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10-500x769.png 500w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10-998x1536.png 998w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-10.png 1040w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 666px) 100vw, 666px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-11.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-11-768x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-11-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-11-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-11-500x667.png 500w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-11-1152x1536.png 1152w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-11.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" src=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12-1024x771.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8509\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12-1024x771.png 1024w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12-768x578.png 768w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12-500x376.png 500w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12-1536x1157.png 1536w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-12.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" src=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13-1024x771.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13-1024x771.png 1024w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13-768x578.png 768w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13-500x376.png 500w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13-1536x1157.png 1536w, https:\/\/unst.org\/web\/bjhs\/files\/2026\/03\/image-13.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday we were delighted to welcome Norik Up Helly Aa Guizer Jarl Floki Skjaldcrafter (Liam Spence) and his 29-strong Jarl Squad to the school \u2013 many of whom are former pupils.
