P1 had a fantastic trip to the NationalMiningMuseum learning about how people lived and worked in the past. We found out our lovely tour guide was a St.Andrew's pupil before he became a miner and shared lots of fond memories of his time at primary school

Lovely to visit our ‘heritage neighbours’ NationalMiningMuseum and explore connections; from the mining monks of Newbattle Abbey to the Newbattle bricks in the wall🧱

Look forward to future collaborations!
