Last week, Primary 4 went on their trip to Edinburgh. At the castle we met Mary Queen of Scots who prepared us for our Stuart party. We found out how boys and girls would have lived during her reign, dressed up in suitable clothing and learnt a dance. At thePalace of Holyroodhouse we learnt about Mary’s life at the palace and saw the place where her secretary Rizzio was murdered. We also learnt about how members of the royal family have used the palace since. Both classes had the opportunity to explore the Royal Mile when travelling between the two locations and we saw John Knox’s house.
