Olympic Mascots

P4 were learning about previous Olympic Masocts and found out great information. Melissa and Tyrese liked Waldi, the Olympic Mascot for Munich in 1972 because it was colourful. Jamie’s favourite mascot was Hodori the Olympic Mascot for Seoul in 1988 because it reminds him of Tony the tiger from “Frosties “cereal. Cara’s favourite was the Fuwa the mascots for the Beijing Olympics in 2008 because they were cute and they were in the colours of the Olympic Rings.

They then designed their own Scottish Olympic Mascots.
