I enjoyed going to the Kirbuster and Corrigall farm it was very interesting learning about how people lived back in the day and i had fun doing all the activities. My favorite activities was making the rope out of straw and making the oats in the kitchen. Anna
This was a really fun trip we had fun.We has a tour of the kirbuster farm and saw all of the rooms. It was really fun i had a great time living in the past it was really fun. We now at the corigall farm where we did all of our activity's my favorite part was strip the willow. Kirsty
Going was really fun and we learnt a lot about how they lived and sort how there lives went day by day. there would have been so much work to do. It would have been very hard because they wouldn't of had machine engines. It was super Kavan
I enjoyed the trip to Corrigall farm. My favorite activity was the carrying water in buckets it was good fun because you got to to see everyone else doing it as well I liked it when they added a square with the buckets attached to it it made it easier to carry. I also enjoyed all the rest of the activites they were all good fun my second favourite was straw work I really enjoyed it because we made a huge one and I also enjoyed it because it wasnt to complicated .
I enjoyed Kirbuster and Corrigall. I likeds seeing the open roof for the fire in Kirbuster. I also liked seeing the old kitchen in Kirbuster. I found the water carrying a little bit difficult because I had to balance the water on my shoulders. I loved making the rope at Corrigall because all you had to do was twist the handle and and more straw and twist it on. Over all I enjoyed going to Kirbuster and Corrigall.
It looks as if you all had a great time. Visiting Kirbuster and Corrigall is a great way of bringing all your learning to life. Do you think you would have liked to live at Corrigall over 100 years ago?
The most enjoyable bit in Kirbuster was when we got to find out the names of machinery they used. An interesting bit was the smoke house because we learned that the square hole in the roof was to let the smoke get out the house. It was surprising to see how small the box beds were because I thought they would be a bit bigger. In Corrigall a interesting bit was how they carried buckets of water but it was very difficult to carry. Jenna
This was an interesting trip and I learned a lot. I had plenty of fun doing all the activities at Corrigall it was my favorite but Kirbuster was also enjoyable and I learned a lot about the past and how and where people used to live. My favorite activities were making ropes and washing clothes. Kiera
I enjoyed all the activities at Corrigall and i like learning about what farms were like a long time ago and how they made there food and what types of clothes that they have.I enjoyed watching the video and I would of liked to have a go at making the rope out of straw
The activites you did there look really fun. What kind of other things did you do? It was really fun going and seeing what people would have lived. Also doing everyday jobs like carrying water. did everyone else think it was fun? Was strip the willow fun? Also did you enjoy the trip? My favourite bit was telling off hermione when we did the hammering. Was the hammering difficult or was it enjoyable? When we did the poetry it was hard because some of the words were difficult to say. How many activitys did you do on the trip and were they challenging? Overall it was great going to find out about the past. Leah & Noah
The best thing I done was making the straw ropes in the barn because it was hard but so much fun and my rope kept on snapping. The most intresting thing we did was the making the flower and crushing the bare banic. Callum.c
I think that the poems were clear and loud enough. It looked really fun and a little bit difficult. The singing was really good except in Kirkwall Bay some people said Michael Bay, but Orkney Anthem was great. I would like to try saying the poems.-Kieran
It was fun experiencing how hard it was for the people in the olden days and finding out what they did back then. We had a great time learning about Cirbbister and Corrigall. Callum.f and Lee
This was very interesting and fun we learned about how they made rope out of straw the and the work they did was very hard because they had to do it all by hand . if they needed to get water they had to have a big curved Plank of wood on there shoulders and walk far distances it was not that heavy but there was only a little bit of water in the buckets. The buckets are on ends of the wood. Going to Corrigall and Kirbuster was really fun.
I enjoyed Corrigall because I liked washing the clothes because it was a better way I thought it was fun and it was a fun experience. I also enjoyed it was hard for the people in the olden days because they all had to do it by hand.In Kirbuster I liked seeing the old tools and I liked how they did every thing in that time. I enjoyed learning the history of farming at Corrigall and Kirbuster. Iestyn
Our day out to Kirbuster and Corrigail was very interesting because we have been learning about it for a while and we actually got to go out and do a bit of hands on learning. It was quit interesting to work without tractors and other machines like water carrying was hard because it was hard not to spill and you had to walk for quit along time just to get water. Making flour was very hard because you have grind it and then it would go into a big bucket so it took quit a long time to get flour. Washing clothes was in my opinion pretty hard because all you had was a small metal tub and hot water with your dirty clothes and soap and you put soap on the clothes or whatever was dirty and you gave it a good old scrub on the board. By Ellen.
We enjoyed going to Kirbister and corigle farm i enjoyed seeing diffrent things like beds fire and dry fish. I liked doing all of the diffrent activities. katie and Leona.
Who enjoyed it? I enjoyed carrying the water buckets with and without the planks of wood that were holding it up. I found making straw ropes surprising because my group managed to work out how to do it without the instructor,I also enjoyed that because I accidentally tore the rope in two. I found it difficult to do the washing up because I went first and I had never seen it be done before. Hermione
What a fantastic video. You were all brilliant and all looked the part. The singing was great especially Kirkwall Bay. What a super experience and great to see. Jenna's mum
