Wow! What a wonderful morning we had yesterday!

We have been working hard on our Victorian Adventure performance since February. Victorian Adventure is an Oxford Reading Tree book that we turned into a play as part of our Children in the Past topic.

We had four teams working on the project, the art team, the music team, the directing team and the acting team. All the pupils were involved and everyone helped to organise the event.

We came up with the idea that we would like to show our performance like an old cinema. We filmed the performance in black and white and invited parents to a cinema morning with singing and popcorn!

Lots of parents said they really enjoyed the morning which is super! We have enjoyed everything about this project: learning our words, making the backdrops and props, making sure everyone knows what they are doing, making programmes, tickets and posters, creating sound effects for different scenes and of course putting it all together!

It has been very busy in the afternoons for the last few weeks in P2S because we had to use and develop our learning from different areas of the curriculum such as  literacy, expressive arts and social studies for this project.

Thank you to all the parents and carers who came along to see our performance yesterday and we hope you all have a lovely break.

Last Tuesday, we were very lucky because we had a class trip to the Museum of Childhood in Strathpeffer.

At the museum, we met a lady called Alison who showed us different old toys and games from the past. She also let us dress up like children from the past. The girls wore pinafores and the boys wore waistcoasts.

We had a look at the artefacts in the museum and Alison told us stories about some of the special toys they have.

It was very snowy, but we made it back safe and sound!

We would like to thank the parents helpers who helped with our trip and Alison who organised the day for us!
