We had a visit from Fiona Sanderson on Monday 9th May – exactly 150 years since Dr Garvie was born. Fiona brought a doctors bag from the museum and we explored what was in it and compared it to things that might be in it today. We also selected some of the items and made drawings of them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>She also brought an old box camera like the one Dr Garvie took photos with. We each had a turn at taking photographs with it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We had a tea party to celebrate Dr Garvie’s birthday and made marshmallows and cinder toffee from Dr Garvie’s ‘Sweets and Chocolates’ recipe book for it. Louise Palmer from the Lighthouse Cafe kindly helped us, supporting us over a video link.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We wrote reports about Dr Garvie.<\/p>\n

Dr Beatrice Garvie<\/strong>
\nDr Garvie was the doctor in North Ronaldsay in the 1930s.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She liked taking photos. Her house keeper was called Charlotte.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She lived in The Bungalow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She was one of the first women doctors. She put her bike in lots of her photos.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She was very kind.<\/p>\n

Dr Garvie<\/strong>
\nShe was one of the first lady doctors in all of the United Kingdom. She also took photos of people and gave copies to them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She gave gifts to the children. She had a cat and a dog. The dog was named Jock and the cat called Smuttie.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She put her bike in photos sometimes. She had an old camera. I think Dr Garvie was really nice and helpful because she gave the children presents.<\/p>\n
