Spring Forward in Learning and Life – Becoming. Belonging. Believing.
Primary 6 had a ‘monstrous’ visit to Edinburgh Book Festival on Thursday.
They met with Dave Rudden (author of Knights of the Borrowed Dark) and Rupert Wallis (author of The Boy with One Name).
Dave and Rupert shared their books with us and then discussed how they created monsters for their stories.
As an audience, we helped to create monsters, which Dave sketched for us.
They also answered questions about their jobs and books.
We will use this as a stimulus for our storywriting next week
.
We had an interesting and informative morning at the Scottish Parliament today.
The children explored the Parliament Building, including the Debating Chamber, 
questioned an MSP and were able to discover more about the history of the Parliament through the exhibition that was on show.
An enjoyable day overall.
We had a mention on the Scottish Parliament Twitter feed too.
