St Ninian's Chatterbox

On Thursday primary 7 went to Devil’s Porridge. It was about WW1. It was  fun and interesting I learned lots. It was one of the best trips I’ve ever been on. My favourite part was playing in the kitchen with John, Kendra and Stevie-Joe. We were cooking and doing the washing up. Kendra kept taken the bacon out of the oven and she wouldn’t stop laughing. We had to dress up for cooking. There was this horrible soap – it was disgusting and smelly and there was food as well. There was two bits of bacon and a chop. I think the kitchen was just for show but we decided to play in it. John played as the uncle and I played as a mum Stevie-Joe played as the sister and Kendra played as a sister.  The dad was away saving the family at war. He was coming home that night and we were making dinner for him. Then we washed the dishes. My second  favourite thing was reading the passages on the touch screen. Dayton kept annoying me when I was reading it but I still managed to focus. It was about WW2 .

On Thursday 15th of February 2018, I went to Devil’s Porridge with my class, It was about WW1 it was an amazing trip, we got to hold things from WW1 such as British Helmets, German Helmets and guns. We even got to look at a sword that was awesome! I was in Mrs Anderson’s group, she was an amazing leader, we also got to look at how women handled while men were away. The Irish Navvies built a factory because British Army were running out of bombs and fuel for the bombs, Over 10,000 women got into the factory.

The women had an amazing life there and they got to do what they couldn’t do before. They had a very good pay check. They also had their own spot were nobody else was aloud in that was their room.

My favourite part was when Jasmine was in the kitchen she was thinking it was her own kitchen! I couldn’t stop laughing.

I hope you enjoyed reading my blog about WW1.

Yesterday  P7 went to a WW1 museum. I really liked handling the guns and the other WW1 stuff like helmets swords and other things. I liked the quiz/hunt. After that we went outside and went to the Sir James (train) we all got to go inside of  the train. We all had a very good day at Devil’s Porridge and we got on the bus and went back to school. When we got to school we looked at the blog.
