Tuesday 11th June 2019 - Primary 7 have arrived safely in Edinburgh and have had a great first day travelling by bus and boat! Pupils enjoyed the journey across the Irish sea - and were obviously excited in anticipation at what is ahead in the days ahead. First stop in the Scottish mainland was the coastal town of Girvan where pupils got to stretch their legs and make use of the play park faciltiies. Next, it was up to the city of Glasgow to visit the Science Centre, pupils were impressed with the main different science experiements - from magnetics to optical illusions - there was plenty to keep the kids entertained. Pupils ate their lunch here and got back on the bus to make the journey across to the historical capital city of Edinburgh. Pupils enjoyed taking in their new surroundings with many commenting on the stone walls and traditional look. Arriving safely at the Claremont Hotel, pupils enjoyed exploring their bedrooms and were happy to get more food! Pupils ended this evening playing in the park adjecant to the hotel. A long but memorable first day. Kids are in bed to get some rest ahead of a packed schedule exploring the centre of Edinburgh! They've behaved brilliantly today and have conducted themselves very well. Great job so far!
