Hagar the Viking Visits to P3/4

Today P3/4 were  visited by Hagar the Viking for a Viking Workshop. This session was funded  by our parent council (A huge thank you from us all).

We learnt about Viking clothing, food and their gods. We dressed up as Viking and played a Viking game called Molkky. We re-enacted Viking marriages, wearing horned helmets which were only used for important ceremonies. We also re-enacted Viking battles as vikings were also know as raiders and pirates.

Following our session we were presented with a Young Viking Historian Award Certificate.

School Defibrillator

Today we were visited by Roger Hill from the charity DH9 Foundation to donate a defibrillator to our school in partnership with the Wee Emma’s Defib Campaign. They have donated defibrillators to all primary school in Dumfries and the surrounding area, as well as all secondary school in Dumfries and Galloway.

Author Visit

Primary 1/2 and Primary 3/4 were fortunate to have a visit from the author  Chae Strathie. He is well know for writing: Gorilla Love Vanilla, Dear Dinosaur, Jumblebum and many more.

He read us both Dear Dinosaur and Gorilla Loves Vanilla. We created our own dinosaur made out of food and a Ice Cream Sundae made of many unusual ingredients. Chae also sang a song about wiggly worms.

Everyone  had a great time!
