TRIP TO THE NATIONAL LIBRARY OF SCOTLAND

On Thursday the 2nd February our class went to the National Library of Scotland. When we went there we had to complete a task on maps. We had 5 maps and had to match them to the statements. After that we were taken round an exhibition of maps. It was really fun to see the history of maps. It was crazy because the library has 24 million books!! They have 15 floors in total, that is basically 15 times the height of the school. The first floor on the road was actually floor 11, the rest underground. We really enjoyed this trip and would like to go again to read some of the books!
