P6 took their trip to the Scottish Parliament as part of their social studies topic on politics.  We learned all about the history of the newer Scottish Parliament as we as the longer history of Scottish politics. We also learned a lot about the design of the building and how the architects added symbolic meaning to the design. Can you spot the Saltire?

Victorian Artifacts

Primary 6a have been looking at artifacts from the Victorian era. We discussed what the items looked like, what they could be used for and created questions about them. We were able to work out some of the answers to the questions through discussing them in a small group. We also thought about the modern day equivalents of these items. Can you guess what any of these items are used for?
