Year 5 Compare life in Gloucester with life on Islay (pronounced "eye - lah")

With the help of the children of Port Charlotte Primary School we are getting a feel for island life.
Click here to see what is happening just down the road at the Bruichladdich distillery. They've got some great webcams to look at. What's the weather like today on Islay?

Last term Class 11G studied the vikings.
They did lots of research at home, and made an amazing display. Look!

In art the topic was entitled "Talking Textiles"
The aim being to use different materials to "talk" about Gloucestershire.
Some of the results are shown below. What do you think?

A cotswold cottage

A warehouse at Gloucester docks

The Tailor of Gloucester
And now some...
Viking Shelters

The children's designs were based on images that they had found in books
and on the internet

They spent a lot of time learning how to join different materials.
