P6 primary children get a taste of 6ème

by Carol Cretaigne

P6 recently went to the college for a taster lesson with SIS secondary History/Geography teachers Ross Black, Darren Griffiths and Cindy Plecko. Here are their opinions of the experience...

My day at the college. Wednesday I went to the SIS college. All the P6 classes went to the college to take a class. Our class had a history lesson with Mr.Griffith.On the board there was a question: Who was the skeletons and who killed them? He gave us an envelope with some articles about Vikings and English men. We discovered the answer ourselves. After, we went back to class.

What I liked about the college of Sevres is that it is a very pretty building, nevertheless when you go there you have to walk up all the stairs and it takes a long time. I also liked the history lesson. It was very interesting and the subject we studied was very fun because we got to work in groups. The subject was that once, a farmer went to work and he hit something hard so he called the police and the police found out it was human skeletons. The skeletons were not recent so the called historians and those historians, found out that it was from the time of Vikings. So, we studied clues and got a question: who were the peoples in the fields and who killed them? Nobody is sure not even historians but there is a lot of suppositions. So, in conclusion, I really liked the college of Sevres because of his beauty, his teachers and his classes. I love it!!

I enjoyed visiting the college. I loved the lesson we had because it was very interesting. I learned many things about the norwegians. The teacher was just fascinating. I had never been in the college of Sevres and I am happy to have visited the school.

On January 12th, all the P6 classes went to the college. We had a history lesson that turned out to be a quest to find out what had happened to some bones. The teacher gave us a dozen clues. We were in groups of 3 or 4. The bones were remains from a battle that took place in 1066 in Riccall near York. York is in the NE of England. I have ancestors that come from York because my dad’s grandfather came fromYork. When I came back home, I was happy about this experience because I thought this was a nice way of doing history because we could participate in an active way.
