Fyvie Castle

Primary 5/6 from Causewayend School visited the Aberdeen Art Gallery with their class teacher and Sheena Blackhall and David Barry from The Reading Bus. The class were enthralled by storytelling sessions from Sheena using different paintings as the stimulus. Back in class the youngsters wrote fantastic poems, stories and plays using the paintings as the inspiration.

Fyvie Castle

Fire coloured grass
Yellow stoned castle
Very dark and scary inside
Inside a skeleton lays
Everyone who goes in,
The ghost will get you.
Could the castle be haunted?
Anyone who goes in Fyvie castle
Skeletons will be on you
Strong stone walls
Towers are very old.
Long, long ago noblemen lived in Fyvie Castle
Everyone who visits is scared.

You better stay outside
Very evil ghosts
Illusions will haunt you

Castle
Alice’s name carved
Spooky
Towers
Land
Evil scary ghosts
