On Friday 9th June Primary 1 visited the Tolbooth, or the Town Clock, as lots of people know it. Some parents also came with us. We enjoyed it very much. We toured around the building, seeing the cells and Courtroom. The cells were quite scary.
K said, “I liked the torture room. It had no bed and no light. ”
K2 said, “I liked the creepy bucket.”
P said, “I liked the jail.”
We also had the chance to go outside and walk along the outdoor viewing platform. It is so high up! One group stood right under a clock face as it chimed for 2 o’clock. Thankfully, it wasn’t too loud.
Many thanks to Mr Alexander and the other volunteers of Forres Heritage Trust https://forresheritage.co.uk/ for making our visit so interesting and enjoyable. A big thank you to the parents who came along with us.
Here are some photos.
You’ll need your child’s glow login details to view the Sway showing the visit.
