Year 5 are learning about
the Titanic this term and went on a trip to the Maritime Museum in Greenwich. The children learnt
about the lives of those that were at sea and had a look around to explore what
we would come across on deck. 
We took part in interactive
activities that made us feel like we were on board; we were able to use signalling
that was used at sea, such as Morse Code and flag texting.We familiarised ourselves with what a kitchen and
a boiler room would have been like on a ship too!
We experienced what it felt
like to load cargo on a boat to keep it balanced. We carefully took turns in using
a crane to lift and lower the cargo onto a boat. We tried to keep this levelled
and soon found out that this was not as easy as it looked!
Can you spot any crew
members from Bannockburn?
