The whole day was amazing the pupils in P4/5 were very well behaved and were very enthusiastic learning about cannons and weapons and exploring the Great Hall. Everyone loved hearing the one o’clock gun and seeing the ball drop on Nelson’s Column to show ships in the River Forth the time too.
We headed down the Royal Mile in and out of closes and courts towards Greyfriars Kirk and the famous statue of Bobby.
Focus was our social studies lesson on the features of Edinburgh Castle…..
We picked out passenger cards to see how we would travel on the unsinkable ship .Lucky Mrs Kean picked out a first class passenger card costing £30 a ticket for a parlour suite. Unlucky Katie, Abigail and Mrs C all picked 3rd class passage at a cost of £7 a ticket !
We created Launch Day tickets with appropriate information on them too and understood the different fashion trends of 1912 on board this amazing cruise liner.
Christopher said the Chapattis were delicious and would have been good with ghee(BUTTER).
Lewis said go ahead and try these Indian breads they were really good!
