Pupil Blog: Knights & Castles Workshop!

School knights and castles workshop by Robyn and Natalie

P4 were lucky enough to be visited by North Lanarkshires knights and castles workshop. We got to dress up to be a Lord,a lady,a king,a knight and loads of other people back in that time. After that we got to see a stone castle and a wood castle model. We saw a jester jug and the lady that came in said that we could try pouring water into a cup but it had holes in it so when we tried to pour it it made loads of spillages. There was little toys that we got to play with there was a flute a drum,a ball and two cups. We didn’t know what the cups where for so we just played our own game with them.on the last station we got to look at pictures of castles. After that we we got to wear helmets and after that we got to lift heavy chain mail it was so heavy that we had to lift it in a group of four. After that we got to hold a real sword and a real axe but you may think that the axe cuts down trees but it is actually meant for chopping people’s heads off and we also got to hold a giant dagger it was really scary and we also got to hold a shield. When we held the weapons we were very carful.when she was leaving we gave a massive thank you and we helped take the stuff back to the office. Thank you for reading p4 blog.
