Transport in the Trossachs

One of our topics this year was Transport in the Trossachs.

We researched this and found out lots of interesting facts. We worked with a partner a senior pupil with a junior pupil all from class 2. We had to choose two different types of transport and make up a presentation to show to everyone at the end of the topic. This is a great way to learn, you learn through what you research for yourself and you also learn when you watch and listen to other presentations. We learnt about the old railway line between Callander and Lochearnhead.At the end of the topic we went through to the Riverside Museum which is the Transport Museum in Glasgow. We went around in our classes and each class did a workshop. Class 1 went to a workshop on boats, class 2 went to a workshop on old transport. We got to look through the museum, it was all very interesting.

Trip To Edinburgh Book Festival

Leave a comment

Edinburgh Book Festival

Our school want to the Edinburgh Book Festival. Class two went to see an author called Kaye Umansky. She read breath-taking stories and did great impressions of the characters in her books. After that we went to see another author called Chloe Daykin. Chloe had a really funny assistant. Everyone had a clip board we had to write down how many men we saw hiding in her slide show. She wrote a book called ‘The Boy Who Hit Play’ and it was a fantastic book.

Class one went to see an author called Polly Fader and Emily Mackenzie one book was called ‘Picking A Pooch’ they all said it was a great story and that it was was super funny. They loved the main character ‘Pickle’ who was a dog and the author had a puppet on her hand and she ran around the room with it.

After that we all had lunch sitting outside and then some of us got ice cream. It was a great day and everyone got a book from the book shop.
