P4/5 had a very exciting Wednesday on their school trip to Carrickfergus Castle. The class were taken to the museum for the first part of their school trip. Here, they were shown a map imprinted on a blanket and they discussed the history of Carrickfergus Castle and the area that surrounded the castle. Next, the children completed an artefact hunt where they had been given a list of artefacts to go and find. A tour around the castle came after lunch where the children had an extensive tour of the castle learning plenty along the way. Despite the very windy weather, the trip was great fun and the children learnt plenty.
