Hello,
In primary 5 this week some of us went to Lockerbie Manor and some stayed in school.
if you want to read about the Lockerbie Manor adventures please click on the Residential News tab above.
The children who stayed in school have been doing exciting activities as well. On Wednesday we looked at Coats of Arms and how they are created. The children are now designing their own Coat of Arms and putting on things that are specific to them. We will be continuing with this activity today where we will be painting them.
Mr Shanks brought the virtual reality equipment along and the children got to experience a range of adventures – we went underwater and saw the Great Barrier Reef, we visited the Mackie ice-cream factory, we travelled to Edinburgh castle, we zoomed up into space and we visited ancient Egypt. Tyler said-“It was really fun to see all the different places.”
In art with Ms Fox the children made monsters. Oliver said “It was very, very fun and cool”
Today the children are going to create Scottish and English soldiers to guard the P5 classroom. When the other children return hopefully they will not be frightened!
They will also have PE with Mrs Ferguson where they will be getting all the equipment out and have a fun obstacle course.
We would like to ask the Lockerbie Manor people some questions-
Are you all having fun?- Ammar
Did anyone scream when you were rock climbing?- Lina
Did everyone sleep ok?- Katie
What do you think has been the best activity? – Elle
What has the food been like? – Tyler
Did you get soaking wet and mucky?- Aaron
We are looking forward to you answering our questions. We will check in again tomorrow.
Hope you have fun
From Primary 5
