Primary 7 had a fantastic trip to Lady Haig’s Poppy Factory in Edinburgh today. The veterans that work there were very funny and we learned a lot from listening to their stories. We were also able to share with them everything we know about World War One and World War Two. Some of us were lucky enough to try on some of the old uniforms the soldiers would wear in the trenches. They were very heavy! Even Miss Armstrong had a go! We then had a tour of the factory, watching and learning from the men and women that make the poppies. Every year they make thousands of poppies that are then delivered all around Scotland.
