Posted by Law Upper in : P7 , add a comment

We currently have 200 full back packs and we need another 100 too get our target off 300. If every class brings in another 3 bags we will make people happy in Africa and reach our target. For a complete back pack you’ll need t-shirt, shorts or a skirt, flip flops, toothbrush and toothpaste, one bar of soap, towel, a small ball, a spoon, writing booklet, pencils, pens, crayons, sharpeners, erasers, rulers, pencilcase and of course, a bag to put it in. WE DON’T NEED ANYMORE CLOTHES!

Evacuation to the Museum of Flight October 25, 2009

Posted by Law Upper in : Uncategorized , 6comments

To help us to learn more about life in East Lothian during World War II, P7 were evacuated to the Museum of Flight. We all dressed up as evacuees of the time, together with our name label. At the museum were were lucky enough to be able to visit Concorde before we stepped back in time. We learned about what the RAF officers would wear on duty, we were able to sound our own air raid siren, we learned about life on site in East Fortune during the war and we were able to see Spitfire and a Messerschmitt planes.
Here are some of 7B’s photos to remind us of that day.
