P4/3 went to Edinburgh Castle on Tuesday 29th of April. Craig took us round the castle and we saw lots of stuff! It was amazing.  Mons Meg was huge and Cameron tried to pick up one of the cannon balls! The rocks on the side of the castle were grey and heavy.  One of my favourite parts was when we got dressed up in the fancy clothes. They were made from ribbons, silk and lots of other fancy stuff.  My other favourite thing was when the one o’clock gun went off.  It was loud! I jumped! It was amazing and so was every thing else!  By Meighan  


Edinburgh Castle trip

edinburgh-castle-trip-2008-136-blog-pic.jpgOn Tuesday 29th April P4/3 went to Edinburgh Castle for our school trip . We had a guide called Craig and he took us around the castle. We took lots of pictures of all the things he showed us.  We saw Mons Meg the huge cannon and we heard the one O’Clock gun go off after we had lunch.  My favourite part was when we all got dressed up.  I was a lady and had a very pretty dress on.  It had gold thread and I loved it!  We all had such a great day and i would love to go back!  By Neave

Primary 4/3 were visited by a real knight last week called Sir Hugo.  We learned how people hunted food in the Middle Ages and he taught us how to use bows and arrows.  Abby got to wear chain mail and a helmet and she held a sword. She looks liked a proper knight!  My favourite part was when we went outside to shoot bows and arrows.

P4/3 had their book launch on Wednesday 19th March.  Lots of mums, dads and friends came to the launch to hear us read our fantastic stories!  Primary 3 and Primary 5 dropped by to hear us read too!  We changed our classroom about and everyone stood behind their books and were asked questions about their stories.  It was fun being an authour and an illustrator.  We even had a fancy purple velvet chair with purple tinsel and read our stories using a microphone!   We put lots of effort into our castle books and it was really great to share our stories with everyone.
