Class trip to Maeshowe, Skara Brae and Ring of Brodgar

We went a class trip to Maeshowe, Skara Brae and Ring of Brodgar to find out how people in the Stone Age lived.
We learnt lots of interesting facts and had lots of fun exploring the different places. We also developed our skills in reasoning and enquiry.






Kaylen got to go down into the houses at Skara Brae.



We really enjoyed listening to stories about how the stones came to be at the Ring of Brodgar and playing games there. We also learnt a big new word – Neolithic.



Despite being a cold day, we all had lots of fun and learned lots about Neolithic people in Orkney.

  1. You look like you had a great time on your visit to all of the sites. I hope it is a day of learning you will remember for a long time.

  2. This looks like a great day out! What a pity it wasn't a nicer day and that you didn't get to have your lunch on the beach! A great time had by all by the look of it. Hope you all enjoyed it and learnt lots! Caroline(Erin R's mum)
