Primary 3 – 7 Visit to Dynamic Earth.
On Wednesday, Primary 3/4 and Primary 5/6/7 went to Edinburgh on an educational visit to the Scottish Parliament and Dynamic Earth. Both classes have recently been learning about Space and were able to apply and extend their knowledge through a space workshop. Here the children were involved in designing space rovers for different planets and moons and they had the chance to present their designs to the rest of the group.
Whilst Primary 5/6/7 were at the Scottish Parliament, Primary 3/4 enjoyed exploring Dynamic Earth and were lucky enough to get covered in foam during their 4D video of the Arctic! Miss Ross certainly did not expect it!
