Womans suffrage !!!!!!!!!!!!

On Wednesday 9th September 2009 we went to the Museum of Edinburgh to see the exhibition about woman's suffrage and to see how they used to live.Mrs Baker did a drama workshop with us. We, the girls, had to act like a wife to a wealthy man and the boys had to be that wealthy man. Some of us were embarrassed, we didn't want to act in front of everyone. Then after that we looked at the exhibition. It was very interesting because some of them ran in front of the kings carriage to get attention. Some women went on hunger strikes and then they got force fed. We are going to enter a competition all about the Votes for Women March in Edinburgh in 1909. We could win £100!!!

Beechgrove garden is here

Beechgrove garden is here woo hoo! It has been very exciting this week. Our garden, the Room to Grow, was just an old dump 1 year ago and now it has been transformed into a lovely, warm and happy place to be. Mrs Sharpe organised builders, mums and dads to help so I want to say thank you to everyone - and especially Mrs Sharpe.
You can see our new garden on BBC2 on Wednesday 9th of September 2009.
